Well after 7 trips to Walmart, I bought the router you told me to get. Comcast would not connect it for me. SOOOO, I went back again and RE bought the zoom PLUS 2 routers , so I am hoping I can change my ip address by changing routers with that...Again....... But that would be logical and logic never works in my life.. My life is a miserable mess. I HATE my life, all i do is work and nothing ever works for me... Askpin says "change your ip- no problem!" Well Ive been BEATING my head against the wall for days on end trying to "change my ip"/ Read the stupid book 10 times...// I hate my life // I want to die.... I cant stand living, I'm a slave and the universe OWES ME! If there is such thing as Karma, it is totally in reverse in my life.. I don't deserve the miserable life I live.. Oh well, just keep going at it because there is obviously no god who gives a **** about us at all, who is looking out for us human beings AT ALL. And if there is a "god" he just left us here to rot on this miserable planet.... Thanks for your help friends.... I am sure what i am doing WILL NOT WORK. But hey, i almost had a heart attack doing it and almost got luck and dropped dead.... Cant wait until I can finicky leave this miserable existence and drop dead! That will be the best day of y life.. Well death.. Thanks!

Okay first take a second and breathe. you can do this. All you need is to switch your router/modem package. Tell them you dont want it. You want the BASIC MODEM like Uknown said.
once you have that you need a way to get wifi.
Thats when you use your own router. to give wifi signal.
with this setup you can change your IP ADRESS no DOUBT. 100%

I'm going to stop helping if all you want to do is troll. You can see only myself and one or two other people are responding to you for the way you are derailing a constructive discussion meant to help you.

I had the same situation right now you have the comcast all in one router/Modem
You need to purchase your own Modem and your own Router
Now before you purchase another modem, what service do you have with Comcast, you need to know this, it will determine which modem that you need
Say if you have the triple play, Cable, Telephone and Internet than you will need a Telephony Modem and that is a modem that has a telephone jack in the back, this is the one I had to purchase because I have the triple play
Now if you do not have phone service with Comcast and just have Cable and Internet, than you do not need to worry about getting a modem with a Phone jack
This is important
So do you have Phone service along with Internet and Cable????
After you determine whether you need a modem that will work with your phone or if you do not need a modem with a phone jack, than go to xfinity.net and go to the search and type something like compatible modems
It will give u a list of modems that you can use, a list of Telephony Modems if you have Comcast phone service and a list of modems without Phone service
Once you see which modem is compatible with the service you have than purchase the modem
And if you haven't purchased a Router yet, get a Netgear N600 Router.
It has a very user friendly setup page and you will be able to change the Mac very easily
Once you have the right modem and purchased a router , call Comcast and let them know you need to set up a new modem, tell them you purchased your own from the approved online list and would like to switch that out with Theres and add your router.
They will walk you through the setup if you do not know how

| Regular modems can be used if you are not physically using the telephony option. I'm running it right now only because they gave me a discount. I just told them I wasn't going to use it, but I want to keep the promotional package. Works no problem.

Well I have xfinity voice as my house phone, so I needed to get a modem that would be compatible for phone service, if you don't have phone service than you don't need the one with a phone jack, or do not want to use your phone service anymore
ARRISS TM722G
This is the modem that I purchased and it has a phone jack if you have xfinity phone service
I just unplugged the modem/router combo that was hooked up and ran the power and Ethernet cable into the ARRISS along with my phone line and than hooked the router up
After that I made a two minute call into Comcast and they sent a code through and that was it I was running again with a modem and Router

Not sure why they are calling Comcast when they switch routers that's unnecessary

I have been through living hell. Im not panicking.. I have been working on this for weeks on end........ Everything I DO in life DOESNT WORK. I have Xfinity, but I don't need the phone line. I FINALLY have a set up which is the zoom modem along with a belken N600 Router. THIS WAS AFTER GOING THROUGH NUMEROUS DIFFERENT COMBINATIONS AND SPENDING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS!!! If I go on my router page NOW I am able to change the mac address. HOWEVER, after I change the mac address, THE I.P. ADDRESS STAYS THE SAME!!! Im not panicking at all. I am just stating the truth, THAT my life sucks, AND everything I do in life DOESNT WORK!! I am cursed BUT WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO Do?? Kill myself?? Believe me, that is probably the best option but I HAVE NO CHOICE , BUT TO JUST KEEP WORKING on stuff that works for everyone else , but NOT FOR ME... For the slight chance that Maybe I change MY GOD DAMN I.P. ADDRESS LIKE EVERYONE ELSE CAN...

If none of this works and causes so much trouble, can you use your cell phone to tether and get access?
Start taking deep breaths could you.
I do not want to hyperventilate on your account.
And breathe.....

BREATHE DAMMIT | No, because I need to set myself up to have stealth accounts. Also my cell phone connects to the wi-fi automatically, so it would be the same I.P. address. But thanks : (

I bought 3 different routers for "router swapping" - So I swapped the router, THE IP ADDRESS STAYED THE SAME !!!

Why cant I change my IP address like everyone else in the world can??? This is horrible...
