rogers with static IP ?

[Dan Gennidakis]

A colleague of mine requested it once with Rogers as a business need and got a static IP reserved. Not sure if you can still request this. It's not really a big deal to setup for them on DHCP assigned Static IPs.

In Quebec, Videotron will give out static IPs on business accounts.

For their "Extreme high-speed" and 5 static IPs on a 12-month contract
it comes down to 199$/month+tx. They lend you a Cisco SoHo router for
the static IPs.

For some reason or another, though, there's no mention anywhere on their
site regarding the availability of the 5 static IPs and related fees:
