A Note to Customers

Structural Limitations
  • Static IP service works by assigning the customer's IP address based on the "Connection ID" used at the time of connection.
    - Only one Connection ID is provided for "Static IP 1" and "Static IP 8" plans.
    - The number of IP addresses associated with your single Connection ID (example: 8 IP addresses for a Static IP 8 plan) is determined and assigned automatically.

  • As such, your static IP addresses can not be distributed among separate networks. For example, a subscription to Static IP 8 service will not allow you to assign 2 addresses to Network A and the remaining 4 to Network B.
    -Customers are advised to consider how many IP addresses will be required on each network and apply accordingly.

    Static IP addresses cannot be split and used separately

  • Please be aware that in the case of a geographic move that results in your prefecture and telephone number requiring change, you will be unable to use the same connection ID and static IP addresses. A new static IP address or range must be assigned based on your new location. So you need to be sure to reapply using new information and then cancel the previous contract if no longer needed.
