Default IP Address Mystery



That certainly has not been my experience.

I keep a log in longhand of every IP address immediately after logging on to the
Alltel system. Unfortunately, I do not date them.

Here on my den desk, I have one sheet before me with 44 different IP
addresses. I would guess that this log is 3 weeks or so old.

I have another log in my office which will have close to the same number
of entries.

When I was having trouble with dropped connections, I would get 3, 4 or
maybe 20 different IP's a day. NEVER EVER the same one.

Some security systems will bar you if you try to log on to them with
several different IP's within a set length of time. Theory being that
two computers are trying to use the same ident and password.

So this one IP for three or four days even after a log off of 45 minutes
or so, is definitely a new thing with Alltel wireless.

Certainly in my area.
