First of all we're reaching the point where we basically discuss a tiny part of the overall space and as such this is not even relevant to the original point any more.
Secondly, the ISP you named (TNG) does not appear to even give out blocks for customers.
- kuschku 11y agoThe claim I made, that most ISPs at least provide one IP per customer, so you personally can use one device with a public IP, is still true. The "small ISPs give out multiple IPs on request" is a different, but related part.
- the_mitsuhiko 11y agoThen we are discussing about completely different aspects because I was talking about an owned block which would be the only way to avoid a NAT on your side.
- kuschku 11y agoAn ISP can give you a bunch of separate, but still static IPs. That’s too rare. It’s effectively like the standard 24h dynamic IPs, just that they never change them. You don’t own the IP, but are still guaranteed to be reachable under it.
