RpTheHotrod Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 I have a problem and I'm needing to change my ip...but I cannot seem to do it anymore for some reason. I've shut off my modem and router for 10+ minutes, nothing. I've released and renewed DHCP, nothing. Help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it'll be longer than 12 hours before someone who truly knows how to do it replies, so I say just give em a call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coupes. Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 Well, you could try going into your router settings (usually 192.168.0.1) and change it from there. I don't know what kind of router you have but you should have a section under "status", or somemething like that, where you'll see your current IP adress. You should also be able to "release" and "renew" your ip from there. If your ISP gives you a static ip, you might end up with the same IP though.

RpTheHotrod Posted May 16, 2005 Author Share Posted May 16, 2005 That's the thing. I used to be able to release renew and bam...but now it refuses to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coupes. Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 I suppose you also tried rebooting your modem... If so, I don't really know what to tell you, except talk to your ISP. Sorry I couldn't be of any more help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acrylic Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 If you woulda followed my advice, you could have had a new IP by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RpTheHotrod Posted May 17, 2005 Author Share Posted May 17, 2005 Nah, man, I just want to know how to change it for future reference. Calling the guys would reset it, sure...but I'd like to know how to personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beau Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 If it is static IP,it will not change even when you reset the modem.You have to contact your Internet Service provider(ISP) for changing static IP.Before or after changing your Ip address,you can check it using http://www.ip-details.com/ .
