Around here a fixed IP address runs an extra $300 to $400 a month. Otherwise you lease an IP address usually for 24 hours or less. You may get the same IP address when the lease is renewed but that is not guaranteed. Fixed IP addresses are generally reserved for persons or businesses running their own web hosting server or having a business need to be transferring GigaBytes or TeraBytes of data up and down on a continuous basis.

See my previous posts on IP addresses in this thread.

If we knew what it was we were doing, it wouldn't be called research, would it?
