G'day,

Thank you to the people letting us (and me via private email) know who

does and doesn't provide static IPs, but can anyone point me towards

this mystical APNIC policy?

Or we safely assume that there is no such policy?

http://www.apnic.net/policy/ipv4-guidelines.html#6.1

"For services that are intended to connect the Internet on a transient  
basis (for example, dial-up connections), best current practice is to  
use a pool of IP addresses for dynamic addressing as connections are  
made.

If an organisation plans to make static assignments to transient  
connections, then full technical justification will be required to  
support the request."


"Because my customers require static IP addressing for applications  
they use."

Or, you could say that ADSL these days is not transient.
