I heard someone say that when you connect to the internet, your IP addresss depends on your connection to the internet. Well, my cousins have this computer that can either use the dial up or it can use the dsl? does the computer have a different IP every time? what about if they have both the dsl and the dial up connected at the same time. which one makes the IP adress?

Here is a website that seems to discuss this subject in an understandable way (for lame-brains like me anyway ).

yafa,

As I understand it, with Dialup, your IP address changes every time you connect, and with DSL, since its an "always on" connection, it doesnt. Of course, I could be wrong...........LOL.
