Request a new IP address from your ISP server. Here's how to do it in windows: 1. Click Start 2. Click run 3. In the run box type cmd.exe and click OK 4. When the command prompt opens type the following. ENTER after each new line. Code: ipconfig /flushdns ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew exit 5. Erase your cookies in whatever browser you are using. Frequently you will be assigned a new IP address when this happens. Sometime you will, sometimes you will not. If you are on a fixed IP address, this method will not work. To be honest, I do not know how to do this in linux/unix/etc. If this works for you, you may want to save the above commands into a batch file, and just run it when you need it. To make a batch file for you noobs copy and paste the following into a notepad file: Code: ipconfig /flushdns iponfig /release ipconfig /renew exit File>>Save As "Whatever.bat"
Well, I'm behind a router/cable connection. And it only changes the ip addres the router assigns. However, this *might* work for [A]DSL users
I do not see the reason of flushin the dns as it hasn't got anything to do with renewing the ip address releasing and renewing would be enough.. deleting coockies would not be nesacarry in most cases
thats a local Ip adress.. yer router will still get the same adress from the modem.. resetting the modem will work if your isp provides dynamic ip's
