DSL doesn't use Dynamic IP's... your ISP does. You can purchase static IP's
from US West (you have to be bridged instead of a ppp connect) or you can
use another provider  and just use US West as the carrier. If you're
running vDSL, you will probably want to stay with uswest.net though because
you'll get screwed on the bandwidth charges from other ISP's if you want to
take full advantage of vDSL's capabilities.
