Yes, dynamic for cable broadband as standard.... same as ADSL.

If you disconnect the line or power to the modem, when it re-starts, it will have a different IP.

Static IP is available at additional cost.

Why would you want a static IP on Bigpond? If you're going to use a server on the network in any capacity, that's purely ridiculous. Don't forget they double-dip. Downloads AND uploads are counted.
