everytime i do the guides on the internet to change IP address. it doesnt change at all! i tried using proxys to vote on soulsplit for amps. but doesnt work lol how you change your ip or whatever:S?
try unplugging your router for a few minutes? Ive heard rumors that works but Ive never done it before, so idk.
I had the same problem but I unplugged it overnight (8 hours) plugged back in and it changed, Not sure how to change it quickly though.
Are you on Windows? If so, type this in CMD one after the other: ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew Should work.
Check out my guide that I'm writing next week: http://www.sythe.org/showthread.php?t=1398218 In mean while you can just use web proxies such as: www.kproxy.com www.surfert.nl www.hidemyass.com This doesn't work, it usually takes days. Doesn't matter, ISP won't change it for you unless you have a very good reason. Several days usually. This will only change your private ip on your local network, not your public internet ip address.
As i asked above, if you want to change your IP, not use proxy/vpn crap and add on the latency, please either state who your ISP is or what form of connection it is (fiber, coax, copper-phone).
I assume normal cable.. And like I said above, no ISP will change your ip unless you have an extremely good reason for it.
If you have a cable provider such as Comcast, Time Warner, Cox, Etc, and your cable modem is connected directly to your computer, then download Technitium MAC Address Changer, follow a tutorial of some sort and change your NIC's MAC address. Then reboot your modem VIA the reset button, which is usually on the bottom / back, and requires a paperclip or similar item to access. If you have a router between the modem and your computer, go into the router (http://192.168.1.1/ - http://192.168.0.1/ - Http://10.0.0.1/ ETC, look under your router for the correct address to use) and find a field that talks about MAC address, will usually have text like 00:AB:EF:E1:..more crap here.. near it, all letters/numbers are completely random), change one of the letters/numbers in this field (You can only use A-F or 0-9) then apply the setting, and reboot your modem through the pinhole on the back/bottom/etc.
I don't think anyone has it connected directly now a days But yeah the second one works, which is what I'm making a guide on next week. But ofcourse your router needs to have the option. I'm going to make a detailed guide on this next week. Surprisingly almost no one knows about this method.
Out of all the routers I've worked with, never seen one without the option xD. (Of course lately I've only touched Cisco/Juniper routers)
