ADD A STATIC IP
Level up your internet game
WHAT'S A STATIC IP?
A static IP (Internet Protocol) address is like giving your device its own unique, unchanging ID card for the internet. Here’s the lowdown…
It’s a fixed numerical label (like 203.0.113.1) assigned to your device or network. Unlike dynamic IPs that change periodically, a static IP stays constant. It’s your device’s permanent “home address” on the vast internet landscape, and this address remains the same every time you connect, unless you manually change it.
