How to Change Your IP Address

Pringles · #1 06-13-2011

A lot of you probably already do this but I thought I'd share how I get around having a Static IP address.

I use my iPhone's internet tethering option for my PC and flick airplane mode on and off whenever I need a new IP address.

If you have a jailbroken iPhone I recommend installing SBSettings via Cydia. It makes activating/deactivating your iPhone's internet much more convenient.

also look at: IPmanager
you can get it from the app store on ur iphone on computer in itunes.

u shows you internal and external ip address and keeps a list of ips usedand allows you to change your ip with a touch of a button

And post the help in the right part of the forum

Now moved to IP address

you should call your isp and have it changed to dynamic if at all possible. static is never a good idea with stealth accounts, especially if you have been banned before and are tethering like you said. one wrong connection while you are on eb/am and boom....gone.

im wondering what happened, i read stealth and set up some accounts....when i used autiva to list items ebay came up with a message saying it wasn't allowed for use when listing items...so i have to do it right in ebay now to list my items.... has that happened to any one?

glasstree · #7 07-06-2011

It's happened to me.
eBay won't let you use Auctiva until you're off of their 3 month "probation period" ... new accounts with limit of 10/month = eBay's watching you, and Auctiva messes up their spy game.
Hope that helps, if you're still looking for an answer that is.

I would like more info on changing ip using a smart phone. I have an atrix....is there some way to connect it to my pc and change the ip? Nothing else has worked...I have a "dynamic" ip , but everytime the ip is scheduled to expire....it does not....it just lists a new expiration lease date ?? I have tried everything....even got a new modem....nothing has worked

Every time your phone connects to the network, you have new IP...

So, turn it off, turn it back on...

I never thought about Airplane Mode.....brilliant. I've always turned the phone off and sometimes that takes 2 or 3 times. So this is a real timesaver.

Hi Im a newbie but I have a few stealth accounts working thus far. I drive all over town to use a new ip. My home internet is static and I need to get around this.
Too impatient for dialup...

I wanted to buy an Iphone and use the tethering method to my laptop for quick changing ips for each account.
Do I have to buy the iphone with the monthly $40+ charge of internet and email from my service provider (verizon)? Or can I try to find a good deal on an original iphone without the expensive internet package from verizon and make it tether by other methods (like jailbreaking it etc)?

Any input would be appreciated! thanks!!

Hi, I am new to this forum. I just read through eBay Stealth. At changing IP part, I follow instruction by using my iPhone to connect with my PC to change IP. But does IP change new everytimes using iPhone to connect to PC? With IPmanager that you mentioned can I fix one IP with one ebay account? And can I choose IP I want? I am afraid when I change IP, it may be back to old IP.

And if IP keep changing when I use only one ebay account, do they allow me to sell because sometimes they said this it not my computer and they want to call me to get verified code?

Thanks

Careful for those of you using your phones to change the IP. I used this a handful of times and pretty soon I actually discovered I seem to be getting the same 7 or 8 IPs over and over. Watch out, keep track.

All depends on carrier and spectrum frequency you run on. Some have a huge range, while others like T-Mobile 4G in USA, do not.

I cant change my ip address iam using netgear router going through virgin
has anyone had any problems with this or do you no how to do it

any help would be appreciated

cheers Mark

Ok, for those of you who are having troubles changing your IP address. If you are using a router, all that you have to do is this:

1) Log into Router
2) Go to your 'Mac Address'
3) Change 2 of the #'s in your Mac Address and Save Settings.
Example; 00:00:00:00:01 - Change the last 2 numbers: 00:00:00:00:02
4) Unplug modem for 30 seconds, then plug back in.
5) Check IP Address on w w w.w h a t i s m y i p .c o m
6) Should have a new IP Address

Keep changing those last 2 digits and repeat steps whenever you would like to change your IP Address.

sorry for bumping up this old thread ,

can i find out if my ISP is using the dynamic IP , is there any point to change the IP address ? or should i completely avoid using the same computer that i used for my banned eb account ?

hollerme · #19 08-24-2012

I'm stuck too - I bought SMAC to change the Mac (and thought that would change IP) - SMAC didnt work so I used Technitium instead which worked immediately. However the IP address remains the same (despite my ISP saying it's not static).

slim jim · #20 08-24-2012

animal- yes you can by calling them but how would you know if you used an ip on an old suspended account?

rsot · #21 08-24-2012

If you have dynamic IP, you can turn on and off on your modem.

Duaber · #22 08-26-2012

Hollerme. Technitium is meant to change the mac address of the computer not the router
