Unfortunately the local ISP assign a fixed IP just for (my) local address, that never changes, while let the remote (ISP) address dynamic, so this latter changing at every connection. The changing remote ISP addresses can be in the two different ranges 192.x.x.x and 195.x.x.x. Is this semi-dynamic configuration feasible and how could I accomodate the two above ranges? PS: Does anybody figure out the sense for that ISP's way to set up?
