For what it's worth, the residential IP is very close to static, as long as you keep the same WAN MAC address on whatever router you use with it, it stays the same - I have had mine for 4 years, even with a new account (same house, but cancel in my name and new account in wife's name for better deals, kept same IP).

I know this is not what you're asking but I've always thought I needed a static IP too but between it not changing anyway and having automatic DDNS if it does, I don't care anymore.

I don't have business so can't speak to the GRE tunnel issues.
