Using broadband you can have sometimes a static IP or one that last for a period of time if you leave the modem/router always turned on. Turning off the modem will release that IP and you will be given a new one next time you connect. Websites can block IP ranges, but that would affect everyone within that same range. |

| 384107 | 2005-08-27 16:33:00 | Jen..... this might prove to be an interesting subject for discussion here. There is a lot of "olde wives' tales" about dynamic and static IP configurations. I don't pretend to know much about it myself, so maybe someone will like to log on and do some 'splaining for those of us who don't know about this subject..... Any takers? :cool: |

| 384110 | 2005-08-28 05:31:00 | And if you do a quick reset its likely to re-assign you the same one - to get a different one its best to leave it off for a short time. | pctek (84) | ||
| 384111 | 2005-08-28 05:50:00 | Then is there any reason to goto the C:\ and then renew after release the IP config? I wonder about this, as this is about the first thing my ISP tells me to do when the wheels fall off. |

They tell you that in case its gotten itself in a tangle and is not finding your router . |
