If your business is online, then you should have an IP address. IP addresses are used to locate other computers on the web and help them speak to each other. When you get Comcast Business Internet, you'll get one free dynamic IP address - additional charges apply for static IPs.

Dynamic IP address
For basic usage, such as surfing the web, uploading and downloading files, or checking email you can use a dynamic IP.

Static IP address
If your business will be running one or more servers, utilizing applications that require external access, or allowing a service to run incoming audio or video, you will need a static IP address. Purchase additional static IPs for great savings!

Does your business need dynamic or static?
Use the table below to help you decide what kind of IP address is right for your business.

A static IP address is required if your business will be running one or more servers, utilizing applications that require external access, or allowing a service to run incoming audio or video. You can add static IP addresses to your plan for the prices below.
