what are the ways by which an internet friendly ipnumber can be obtained?

Answer 1

Unfortunately u don't get to choose which ip number u get unless u buy a number from an isp company. once u log on the Internet ur isp automatically gives u an ip number from a stack that they already purchased and this number is by default good for 24 hrs, this means if u disconnect and then reconnect it will give u the same number. The only way u can change that number is if u right click on the connection icon in the notification area on the task bar and click repair, this will disconnect u from the Internet and then reconnect u with a new ip.

Answer 2

A static IP address is a number (in the form of a dotted quad) that is assigned to a computer by an Internet service provider (ISP) to be its permanent address on the Internet. Computers use IP addresses to locate and talk to each other on the Internet, much the same way people use phone numbers to locate and talk to one another on the telephone. When you want to visit whatis.com, your computer asks a domain name system (DNS) server (think telephone information operator) for the correct dotted quad number (think phone number) for whatis.com and your computer uses the answer it receives to connect to the whatis.com server.

It would be simple if every computer that connects to the Internet could have its own static IP number, but when the Internet was first conceived, the architects didn't foresee the need for an unlimited number of IP addresses. Consequently, there are not enough IP numbers to go around. To get around that problem, many Internet service providers limit the number of static IP addresses they allocate, and economize on the remaining number of IP addresses they possess by temporarily assigning an IP address to a requesting Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) computer from a pool of IP addresses. The temporary IP address is called a dynamic IP address.
