Support hmm I don't remember it being any different for either single or multiple users.
I'd use that term "fixed" very lightly!!!

The Samsung modem we got had no instructions from NTL or Samsung on how to configure it, e.g. via a web interface to turn on/off NAT. I read on the Web that it may have those features but could never find out how to get to them so we are using our own internal router/firewall. I am able to find out the Samsung modem status using the DOCDIS stuff publish by Robin Walker, but only by following his instructions - nothing from NTL.
As to the "fixed" IP, I deliberately put that in quotes as we too have suffered from a resegmentation change with no prior warning. I also have experience with Demon and Zen ADSL and would say their fixed IPs are pretty fixed so far - how fixed they can make them on ADSL may depend on which flavour of ADSL they are running.
