I technically have a dynamic IP, as the ISP also sells an upgrade to a guaranteed static IP which I don't pay for.
However, I've been getting assigned the same IP consistently since 2013. I used to use a dynamic DNS service to keep track of it but stopped doing that since it never changes.
- kjs3 4y agoIt never changes until it does. And eventually it will. Just be ready for it to change if anything you count on relies on it. I know this from experience (and far more than just mine). P.S. - I pay for a static IP from my ISP. Don't count on that never changing either. I know this from experience.
