Hi,
On NTL/Telewest what usually happens is that the IP is provided by a
DHCP server, but the leice (the time that you have that IP for) is quite
long (i.e, 30 days). If you turn off the cable modem and switch it back
on, chances are you will get a new address. Hence technically it is not
static, and can't be used really as a static ip unless you know what you
are doing.
