Verizon Fios can give different IP addresses?
 

If i turn off and power on, will it give different ips?


Now , I am using Verizon DSL; it will give different ip addresses by powering off and on...

It seems like your answering your own question....confused.

only some routers/services will give you a new ip if you switch on and off

try doing it and test your ip before and after you turn it off

DSL =/ Fiber

Some connections you may need to turn off the modem for more than a minute to get a new IP as well. At one point I had frontier DSL, and if you turned off the modem and waited a minute and turned it back on there would be the same IP, but if you turned it off for a few hours you would get a new IP.

If you have tested it and it gives different IPs, you are good to go - if not, then consider dongle, phone tethering, etc.
