So, Comcast wants to rape me on getting more IPs, so I was trying to think of a relatively cheap option, and I came up with this, tell me what you think:

A lot of these VPS hosts will give you as many IPs as you ask (and pay) for. Looking at a few options I saw places as low as $0.50/IP/mo and as high as $5/IP/mo. So, my thought was this:
Buy a cheap VPS, get about 1Gb of RAM, maybe 1Gb of HDD space (or whatever the minimum is) - about $20/mo
Get a bunch (like 16) IP's from them - $30/mo
then on my local servers (where I need the IP's), make a bunch of fake adapters (virtual ones), I don't know the real name of these
make SSH tunnels between the fake adapters and the adapters on the VPS with the IP's
do some magic on the local servers (make a bunch of local adapters that are bridged to the fake ones, or whatever) so that each adapter has an IP
then write software so that on every boot, it establishes this network of fake adapters and the tunnels on every boot.

Overall, it would cost about $50/mo, but I could keep things working with the 2 uplinks I have, and I wouldn't have to pay comcast $300+/mo for the same (but simpler) package.


Thoughts?

You can get cheap a cheap VPS for like 20 ~ 40 dollars a year

The question I have is what is your intentions for so many different ip's?

I could be on a whole different page than you are, but I know that when I had a VPS through DigitalOcean, I was able to see all live devices on that network, which I think was over like 16,000, I was able to see the IP, mac address of every device, and if the device was hosting a website, I was able to see what domain. I think that was a NMAP scan, or it was an ARP scan.

it was an ARP scan, and you were only allowed to see the hostnames of the individual boxes, not every web domain hosted.

For speeding up the process, an open source softether VPN would be used. Install softether on VPS server(which has much ips) . Softether has virtual ip fetaure inside, just configure it by defining your available IPs. Then softether handles with rest of them. Install client software(on pcs) and connect to VPS server once it will initialize a virtual adapter on widows, don't need to do anything, it will be your default network adapter unless you changed it.

Here is the vpn which I mentioned: https://github.com/SoftEtherVPN/SoftEtherVPN
(If anyone interested I can help with the installation steps)
