away from the old numbers.  How many of those customers do you think 
we'll lose when we officially turn off the old ip's?

IMHO every dialup customer from every ISP in the world should use
192.168.254.1 for their DNS address and this number should be hard coded
as the default in all client software. Then this problem would go away.
