Hello,
Before I start just want to let everyone know, I am trying to change the IP not because I was banned from somewhere, no, but because I am experiencing network conflictions and some other network related issues.
So, here is the deal, I did some researching on how IP's work, but its still confusing for me. I am hoping someone can help me out. The IP that you see when you go to like whatmyip.com it's a public IP correct? What about Default gateway IP & DHCP server IP? Is that Private IP's? (if u go to run and type ipconfig /all, u will see what I am talking about) I believe what I am trying to do is to change my Default gateway IP & DHCP server IP (they have the same IP, on my pc). One of the methods I was able to find on the net, is to unplug my router for a night. What that did is it changed the IP that I see when I go to whatismyip.com and it also changed the last digit on my Default gateway IP & DHCP server IP, but Default gateway IP & DHCP server IP needs to be changed fully.
I currently have FIOS from Verizon on a Dynamic IP
Last time I called Verizon they didn't want to change it for me, and offered me to get Static IP, they sad that way your problem can be fixed, but dynamic IP costs way 2 much money! What do u think if I call Verizon ask them to change it to Static, wait for my IP to change and then call them back and change the service back. Will my IP go to what it used to be? Or will I have a new IP?
If someone can answer all this questions or at least some I would really appreciate it.
Thanks.
