I've done some investigation, and the costs don't look too prohibitive, but almost nobody is prepared to route my /24 net block (192.109.197.0/24). One alternative would be to route the block through an IP-IP tunnel from somewhere else in the Internet. I see a couple of potential problems with this approach: * I need somebody to provide the service. Do you know of anybody who can help here, for a reasonable price, or can you help yourself? Somewhere in Australia would be better, but given the satellite delay it could be almost anywhere in the world. I'd be looking to route about 2 GB a month, and the download speed of the satellite link is limited to 1 MB/s. * How do I terminate the IP-IP tunnel at my end? The last time I used it, I had a static IP address for the end of the link, and another for the end of the tunnel, which implies routing that address. This won't work in the scenario I'm looking at. Is it possible to route the tunnel to the same address as the external interface IP address? Alternatively, is there another way to handle this issue?
