Think mine has been the same since i've been noticing it
Will Virgin reserve an IP address, or is it chargeable ?

Hi
Thanks for the comments - sorry to have been a few days in approving comments & responding ... been maxed out!
Andrew - This is a new one on me. Can you please report it on the Help & Support forums (http://community.virginmedia.com/) with some details and the community team will pick it up asap.
Mr Barton - Don't have a firm date yet, but it's being worked on right now and we'll publish details on the Help & Support forums as soon as we have some news (as per previous responses).
John - Way over my head sorry, but I checked in with the expert:
"Your Synology NAS box should work fine with our SuperHub but may require a little bit of port forwarding and configuration for it. Does your current router support Dyndns login via its configuration pages? Our Hub doesn't directly support the Dyndns login so it would just be a case of checking every now and then to ensure your IP hasn't been changed and updating your Dyndns account accordingly if it has. Other then that just setup the required ports to forward and it should work fine  " |
Thanks for that Seph, you've answered a question, what i'm trying to achive is
1, a better understanding of routers & bridging them, networking, wifi, etc
2, I'm trying to get a iphone app i have working on 3G, which can access my whole network called FileBrowser, its fine at home on wifi, i have a Cisco EA6500 router as router at mo, its a newish model, recent F/W updates seem to upset its cloud based configuration page, which seems to be affected when you update F/W, it has no local alternate config page (yet), i'd like to get that and similar working with just my IP address if poss.
