Were you banned from a website? It depends on your internet service if your ip address can be changed. We can't change your Ip, your provider will have to do that if its possible.

Unless you ask your ISP for a static address, which usually costs money, you get whatever IP address your ISP gives you. It may be the same each time you connect, it may not. They give you any address within their allocation.

can't think of to many reasons for changing the addy on the internet.
Only to access another country like Iraq or Iran and read or watch tv.
just curious.

sorry.....don't know if thats an illegal conversation.

You would need to contact the admin of the forum and have them sort your issue out if you were unbanned supposedly.

Not sure if it is allowed to post this in this forum, but you can hide your ip from the forum you want to get back.
This website just put the url of the forum in there.

Well, I don't know if my ISP is one of few who do this but...

If I turn my computer off, unplug my router + modem, than restart everything I get a new IP address (Sometimes). I'm not sure why, and I'm not sure if it will help get unbanned (Though it did work for me on a game I played years ago).

Also sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I've gone months with the same IP, than suddenly it changes - which can be really annoying when using programs like VNC.

As I wrote earlier in this thread, most people obtain their IP address automatically from their ISP. It's easier for the ISP to have a smaller number of IP addresses available than subscribers and dish them out to whoever is online. You may get the previous IP address, maybe not. The IP address falls within a certain range so the other end can still tell which ISP you are using.
