I'll give a brief run-down on how to do it, go into your browser, and type in 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.2.1 (depends on the manufacturer), login, and find a part about MAC address or MAC address cloning, change the MAC address a bit ( you can use 0-9 and A-F), save settings, unplug the router and the modem and plug them back in. You should have a different external IP now. |

If you don't have a router, go to start>run type in cmd
In the command prompt that comes up type
then
That should do it. If not, you can try leaving it unplugged overnight, but if that doesn't work, then you have a static IP and you'll have to call your ISP and have them change it.

If you have a router. If not, then no. You can change your internal IP address only. Only way to change external would be if you have dialup, whether some sort of DSL or old school 56K, and closed your connection then reconnected. The external IP is the IP you get from your ISP, and if you have cable, then it's always the same, and can only be changed by your ISP.

Well, he could in theory change it if he changed his MAC address of his NIC, but I'm not sure if that's even possible, never tried.
My IP changes throught my cable if I leave it unplugged overnight(this was before I had a router) so the same may work for him.

Mine never changed with cable, and I can still remotely connect to people's PC's with the same IP as I have for a long long time.

wait what.
What does your IP have to do with connecting to other IPs?

just fyi they were talking about a MAC address, not a Mac as in a Macintosh. i thought i'd get the definition for you so you know what they're talking about:
| Quote: | In a local area network (LAN) or other network, the MAC (Media Access Control) address is your computer's unique hardware number. (On an Ethernet LAN, it's the same as your Ethernet address.) When you're connected to the Internet from your computer (or host as the Internet protocol thinks of it), a correspondence table relates your IP address to your computer's physical (MAC) address on the LAN.
The MAC address is used by the Media Access Control sublayer of the Data-Link Layer (DLC) of telecommunication protocols. There is a different MAC sublayer for each physical device type. The other sublayer level in the DLC layer is the Logical Link Control sublayer. |
btw what do you need to change your ip for?
