Some of these numbers are either distorted or incorrect altogether.
First of all, about the static IP - yes it is static, but most cable providers give you a static IP as well.
3-4mb speeds on DSL? Um.. you'd pretty much have to live next door to the backbone, or pay a shit-ton of money to get a main line pulled into your house.
And 3.5mb on cable? Residential fiberoptics cap out at 2.8mb (or something like that) and most cable providers won't let your speeds get in excess of 2.0-2.2. In order to get 3.5mb download on a cable line, you'd need a commercial-grade fiberoptic hook-up.
Unless the world changed while I was in Florida this weekend.
