My PTR record

Tags:

So I finally was able to get my PTR record changed for my static IP from Verizon.

Formerly, the generic:
static-68-161-230-103.ny325.east.verizon.net

Now, my static IP will resolve to:
home.iambelmin.com

I had to first call Verizon and the lady who I was first assigned to quickly recognized what I was requesting. This was a plesant surprise because I googled around trying to find information on how to modify a PTR record from Verizon and I came across many claims that their support was clueless.

Anyway, the lady then transfered me to someone in the “Enhanced product support” department who, after a few questions, requested I e-mail my request to her just to have everything in writting. Sent the e-mail while she was on the phone, she confirmed that she received it and said I will be receiving an e-mail with confirmation that it was done the following morning.

Around 10am the following morning, it was put through. Went pretty smoothly. No complaints here.
