A Static IP is like your home address, but on the internet - it identifies your devices in the online world. A regular IP address is dynamic, so it changes from time to time, a static IP is a permanent address.

Having a consistent connection to the internet is good support for VPNs, home servers, and advanced file sharing, or if you host your own website. It also supports serious gamers, especially if you have your own gaming server that others can access. It’s not for commercial use though.

You can add one static IP to your service for £5 a month to support your home set up, smooth out your remote access, or for less lag when you game.
