Im currently using a router and my ISP is Roadrunner , they use dynamic ip addresses so my question is how would I be able to change my IP address, since I am using a router and my ISP is dynamic not static?Change IP Address (Dynamic) ?
I've tried this on both Windows XP and Windows 2000, and it has worked:
1. Click on ';Start'; in the bottom left hand corner of screen
2. Click on ';Run';
3. Type in ';command'; and hit ok
You should now be at an MSDOS prompt screen.
4. Type ';ipconfig /release'; just like that, and hit ';enter';
5. Type ';exit'; and leave the prompt
6. Right-click on ';Network Places'; or ';My Network Places'; on your desktop.
7. Click on ';properties';
You should now be on a screen with something titled ';Local Area Connection';, or something close to that, and, if you have a network hooked up, all of your other networks.
8. Right click on ';Local Area Connection'; and click ';properties';
9. Double-click on the ';Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)'; from the list under the ';General'; tab
10. Click on ';Use the following IP address'; under the ';General'; tab
11. Create an IP address (It doesn't matter what it is. I just type 1 and 2 until i fill the area up).
12. Press ';Tab'; and it should automatically fill in the ';Subnet Mask'; section with default numbers.
13. Hit the ';Ok'; button here
14. Hit the ';Ok'; button again
You should now be back to the ';Local Area Connection'; screen.
15. Right-click back on ';Local Area Connection'; and go to properties again.
16. Go back to the ';TCP/IP'; settings
17. This time, select ';Obtain an IP address automatically';
18. Hit ';Ok';
19. Hit ';Ok'; again
20. You now have a new IP address
With a little practice, you can easily get this process down to 15 seconds.
P.S:
This only changes your dynamic IP address, not your ISP/IP address.
