    I am setting up a web server for a friend so he can view his cctv cameras of his business on the internet. I have read all the instructions which appear to be straight forward. As I have never done this before I was wondering do I need to get a static ip address from his isp ? If so how much will this cost per month ? Or should I go the dhcp way ? Any help gratefully accepted.

    Static.

    Cost will depend on the ISP.

    Hi,

    Most ISP's are giving static's out these day's as most people are on high speed always on connections.

    Yes, you could register a domain name with dns.org and this will point you to the right IP everytime.

    Mojorsin- 192..... is a class B private address which cannot be broadcast out onto the net. Just practising my mental knowledge for the N+ :biggrin

    Class C as I understand it. A brief glimpse of the wiki definition seems to confirm this, Simon.

    Yeah, I think it's just with it saying a 16 bit block that threw me a bit.
