[AusNOG] Can you get Static IP's on Telstra Cable?

Same here.

Most of the time I’m fine, but once during a router reboot I did end up with a new IP. Downtime of maybe 5 minutes.

Not sure if this is helpful, but in my experience the IP you're allocated on Telstra cable remains the same unless your connection drops for a period of time longer than the DHCP lease is held for.
For the duration I was on cable (1.5 years) I only went through 5 IP addresses and most of these were due to power outages or a Telstra outage longer than 24 hours :-)

There is some black magic to get you from BP Cable to Telstra Business cable, and then there they seem to be more static than BP, but the average home BP connection is basically static anyway, even hours of outage it is the same.

Not sure you can still get this however, last attempt a year ago failed. Maybe read the threads on similar question RE 4G/LTE last mo.
