How do i change my IP address?

[konabiker47]

Is it possible to change my IP address through my router...or someway that doesnt involve calling my ISP?

THANKS

nope, your IP address is assigned by your ISP. Unless you have a static IP address you could always try shutting down your internet connection for a while and hope you get assigned another IP address when you reconnect.

there maybe a option in your router to release/renew your ip address (powercycling the router & modem will do the same), this will make a request for a new ip from your isp. however, some implementations of dhcp may give you the same address as before.

You can change your IP. Just not the internet's IP.
If your behind a router only the router uses the internet IP. Your computers are on a private IP that does not go on the internet. You can make you computers anything you want within private IP's.
Use command prompt to change

you can stay anonymous on the internet by masking your public IP with the use of a proxy

I thought they were assigned from the ISPs but I would try to powercycle it and hope for a new one I got lucky.

Unplug the cable from back of box for 1 min? Re-plug and go?
