Default IP Address Mystery

I am running a wireless broadband Alltel K650 in a KR1 wireless router,
properly secured with passwords, etc.

I am set up for dynamic DNS. For the past several days, I have noticed
that my IP address will remain the same even when I turn the router off
and move from my home office to my office, which takes 45 minutes or so
from shutdown to start-up.

This is not the way a laptop wireless set for dynamic DNS should work.

What gives? Has Alltel decided to assign address to individual users or
am I locked to an address so it makes it easier for some hacker to keep
up with me?

I should have a new address every time I break my Alltel connection and
reconnect.

What gives?
