5 IP Address?

[Werty]

this came up to my mind. my ISP gave me 5 static IP's... if i destribute these to my workstations, lets say 6 computers per IP add, will the load be the same as sharing only 1 IP to 30 stations? im just trying to somehow loosen up the load for the shop for better online gameplay...

Thanks

It's not going to effect your bandwidth. Unless the games don't let multiple Pc's connect from behind a NAT router I see no reason to have each PC on the net with a public IP.

Just use one unless you have a specific need to use multiple IP's (such as needing multiple secure sites over port 443)

it's useful for being able to have multiple pcs in the dmz zone.

it's also useful for using common ports (like having multiple ftp servers on port 21) but i'm sure you knew all this already...
