1258241	2012-02-09 04:54:00	Hey everyone, I want to find a quick way of getting a new IP address from my ISP. My router is a Dynalink RTA1320V6 running version 3.65p firmware. Even the slow process of rebooting the router does not seem to fix this. Any advice? Notes: I am with Slingshot and I am 90% sure I do not have a static IP	esayolay (13857)

I think by spoofing another MAC address the ISP might think it is another device and give a different IP but I am not sure it is possible on my router. Maybe I will have to connect to the broadband directly with my computer to allow this... Some ISP's charge for a static ip. You can use a static ip within a network (if thats what you mean). Just change the ip under the network adapter This isn't what I am asking.	esayolay (13857)

1258246	2012-02-09 05:24:00	There is no way to force an IP address change from your end. If you are on a dynamic IP address it will change at a schedule set by your ISP. You can try completely disconnecting the Phone line and power cycling to try and make the exchange end refresh but it may not make a difference, sometimes my IP address stays the same for days when I've bothered to check. Why would you need a different IP address?, someone got that one banned from something? You could try these tips whatismyipaddress.com	dugimodo (138)
1258247	2012-02-09 06:22:00	All I have to do is hit the disconnect button in my router which drops the PPP session. Then I hit connect and couple seconds later I have a new IP address.	Agent_24 (57)
