I am using an 871 to connect to an ISP that requires my outside inteface to be in DHCP mode. I give the ISP the MAC address of this interface and my "static" IP is assigned via DHCP based on this MAC. Now I need a second IP and the ISP is asking for a 2nd MAC?! Is it possible to do this? I realize that I could have the ISP route a public block of IPs to my first IP but this setup is in a South American country where that option is not available. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Diego

I'm sorry, it's not possible. You should ask the ISP to provide the IPs manually instead of via DHCP.

I was afraid of that answer. Thanks, I believe we already tried to ask that but it won't hurt to ask again.
