I'm looking to move my residential class service to business class<br>
so I can get static IP and host a server or three from here without the<br>
inbound port blockages. Curious of anyone who has their business class<br>
service currently/recently as my existing modem is listed on their<br>
device info as approved for the business level service I'm looking at<br>
and I'll have a Cisco ASA sitting behind it to terminate as the modem<br>
just bridges. I was just informed that they can't provide me static IP<br>
addresses if I provide my own equipment, which as an IT professional I<br>
find questionable but okay. Looking to see what equipment they provide<br>
to see if it's better than my own equipment and also reports of whether<br>
anyone has been able to manage their provided equipment themselves (ie-<br>
I don't want a device on my network I can't manage, especially if it's<br>
providing firewall and routing capabilities).<br>
