quick question, i want to change the ip address other people see, the wan ip address i believe, i have tried clicking the renew nat lease in the router settings, and i tried turning it off for ten minutes but the same address always returns. anything i am missing here? thanx for any help!
If you are worried about other people viewing your I.P address why dont you just get an I.P blocker and not have to worry about changing it. Try Peer Gurdian 2 http://www.snapfiles.com/get/PeerGuardian.html Good Luck...
not worried about that at all, need to change it for other reasons, since it is dynamic not static i thought it would be rather easy to do, thought i remembered back when i had a reg dsl modem i just had to turn it off and on.
Even though they (Cable internet company) say its dynamic, I held the same IP for over 7 years. When I switched routers, my IP address changed. Strange, huh? No matter how many times you power cycle the router, it will always pick up the same IP. Your ISP recognizes the MAC id of your router and just reissues you the same IP.
