I have a temporary IPv6 address, but my IP is a little sluggish in implementing it.  Until I know more about their situation, I'll defer to them.

It was FREE at one time.  I think bellsouth did that back in the Nineties when some smooth-talking woman called me and convinced me to upgrade my DSL to a faster speed.  With that came the aforementioned free static address and once hooked, I stayed hooked.  It turned out to be a wise decision after the change at DYNDNS and so I no longer needed the Updater program.  The cost is $15/month here.
