Switching My Ip Address

anyone know of a free program that will do this for me

 

What kind of internet do you have.

Dial up, most of the time your IP address changes with each connection you make.

Cable, I believe if you disconnect the modem for a few minutes then plug it back in, your IP will be changed. If not, try again. Not sure if this works with DSL too

 

If you disconnect the power from your DSL Modem, and plug it back in, it will reset your IP.

 

ya too the same ip i want too know t aswell..

 

theres away to do it in dos i forgot how tho. Just unplug w/e you have for a few minutes

 

the way in dos is for your home network, not your connection to the internet.

I've been banned on IRC before, unplugged my modem for 10 seconds, plugged back in, and I could get back on..

 

go to run, cmd, ipconfig, ipconfig/realese, ipconfig/renew

i think thats it

Merged Post:

u were banned?

 

that is for your home network, it will not change your IP on GR..

Yes, I was banned, in a rediculus way, if you ask me..

 

if you're on a network as most people are that won't do ----.

 

you can download a program that automaticly hooks you up to a new proxy everytime you tell it to, which changes your IP. I don't know of any free ones though. You could always just use a proxy server or connect to a proxy manually.

 

That's not the right sequence anyways. It's "Start > Run > CMD > ipconfig /flushdns > ipconfig /release > ipconfig /renew"

 

God dam you got to it before me akw...saw no one posted the right way, was about to post it when i read yours ah well

 

ROFL... Gotcha ;P

 

Browsers will allow you to change your IP. But I dont think that would help in your case since IRC isnt connected to the internet through a URL.

 

If your on dial up your set, just do as posted before and unplug/reset/burn/throw your modem and restart in a few minutes. Dial-up is usually assigned a dynamic IP meaning it changes pretty regularly upon renewal. If your on the average home users highspeed connection your just going to have to connect through a proxy of somesorts as your usually assigned a static IP address designated by your service provider. There are other ways around this, most of which aren't legal though so I'd just stick with a good proxy
