Changing your IP address

[trig]

1) Open internet browser
2) type "192.168.1.1" without " " in navigation bar
3) leave user BLANK and type "admin" without " " as password
4) Look for MAC ADDRESS settings tab, if you cannot find it, try looking under advanced settings
5) Once located, enable MAC ADDRESS cloning if needed, then change the LAST TWO boxes using letters A-F then numbers 0-9. For example "A2" or "C3"
6) Click SAVE
7) Go to your MODEM and click/hold the RESET button on the back of it for a second or so.
8) Wait a minute or so and you should have fully functioning internet with a new public ip address.


IMPORTANT: If for some reason (this has never happened to me) your internet does not-reactivate, DO NOT PANIC. Just unplug your modem and router for a couple seconds, then replug them back in to reset them to factory defaults.


I did this an the internet did not pop right back up. So, I powered off the modem and routher, powered back up, went to ipburger, and BAM!, new ip address!


TYTYTY!!

I use wireless and everytime i have to connect to the internet and each time it comes with a different ip address sometimes it can be similar by only having a couple different numbers at the end and sometimes completely different. Will it matter if say the ip address was nearly the same just with say a 7 instead of a 6 at the end or wil it have to be quite different if you get what i mean? Also its the client ip address that matters not the server ip right? Im not too technical on these things as you can probably tell

Check with IPBurger and see what it says your IP Address is. This is the one that eBay sees.
From what I've read, the IP only needs a change of one number.

I recommend these two:
What Is My IP Address? - Lookup IP, Hide IP, Change IP, Trace IP and more...
and
IP Address Geolocation to Country City Region Latitude Longitude ZIP Code ISP Domain Name Timezone NetSpeed IDD Country Code Area Code Weather Station Code Weather Station Name Database for Developers | IP2Location™

because they include the crucial information you need to determine not only your IP address, but also
1) whether proxy is detected
2) whether conflicting locations are coming up for you

Try them out. With many ISPs these will return two different locations for you.
