Just FYI, Cox will change your IP address if you stop using it. In
other words, if I leave my computer on all the time it will remain the
same (even across the DHCP lease). I have found that powering down my
computer for six hours at night results in a new address.
Unfortunately, I have not experimented enough to learn the exact
conditions under which Cox decides that you require a new address.
