my brother connects to my dads mac via log me in but he finds it annoying to have to change all the preferences when the router is reset so is there anyway to get a static ip from sky broadband?
secondly at my house i am on bt broadband and i am currently building a linux server but i my self need a static ip and instructions on how to get one
many thanks
