Depending on whether your old IP was already reassigned. I'm in a SDSL
network which is commonly used with flatrate and no forced
disconnection, so you'll get the very same address for at least one day.
Can be actually quite fun. I had one guy getting a complaint from DynDNS
that he didn't renew his IP address for 6 month. Guess what? It was most
recent. ;-)
This is why most DynDNS client software and routers that support DynDNS will
send an update every 30 days if the IP hasn't changed - saves DynDNS from
suspending/deleting your host :)
