| What | What the source says | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Static IPv4 on residential plans | No - static IPs only with Business plans A static IP never changes. A public dynamic IP plus dynamic DNS is enough for most home servers; a static IP matters for mail servers and allow-lists. | ISP official page Checked 2026-10-15 |
| Static IPv4 cost (CAD) | Business Internet 30+ includes 1 static IP; max 8 per modem | ISP official page Checked 2026-10-15 |
| Native IPv6 | Yes, dynamic DHCPv6-PD (/56 requestable per user report) With native IPv6, each device can get a globally routable address, which is one way to reach a home server even when IPv4 is behind CGNAT (if the remote side also has IPv6). | Third-party blog Checked 2026-10-15 |
