My DSL is always on and I get static IP, however, I do
have a user name and password. I am in Australia by
the way.
You may try getting an ADSL modem+router, not just an
ADSL modem. The router will connect to the ISP, and it
is via PPPoE...., the modem provides DHCP, then you
can connect your 4.10 to it. But then again, I do
supply username and password to the ADSL router.
Please find out from your ISP if you do get a
username+ password.
