Depends on a few things.

If the IP is Tunnelled they could be getting away with it.

Also, although Im not sure of the DSL authentication side of things, i know
that the NAS servers at Attica will re-issue the IP previously used by the
login if its available (Im talking dialup servers - if they get the same
NAS box as they had previously, which has the IP in its pool, and the IP is
free, it gets re-used).

(I assume this is true, the pattern is too distinct. Ive not had it
confirmed by anyone in our NOC but its what ive observed. Any
*.attica.net.nz dialup in a POP where theres only one or two NAS's may have
noticed this as well.)

Mark.
