 Need Solid Advice, Totally Stuck
I tried putting this in the IP forum but no one seems to want to help.
I brought the Stealth Book but it doesn’t help me on this situation and I have been totally stuck for three days now.
I have BT Broadband. My Home Hub 3 in another room. I connect to the router wirelessy from a Netgear N600 USB stick.
I understand that I can change my IP if I press the reset on the router, but looking around for advice on here I found out that I could log in to the router settings, and that I would have an infinity of options to swap i.p's ranges.
There is a default option, second pre selected option and a 3rd configurable option where you can put any i.p range. I have been using the default for too long now, and since reading the Stealth Book found out ebay can track me. I now need to change the IP range which I tried to do earlier.
I went into the home hub 3's advanced settings to change my ip's range from the default. Have clicked apply and reset / turned off router.
i went back into the hub settings and checked that everything was changed to new range - which it was. I then checked my windows network connection and that seemed to have the 'new' range numbers. When i check my netgear n600 smart wizard settings, that has the new range also... However, i checked ip burger, however the ip that is finding is the same 'old' range ip's.
I'm a little confused here, why would ip burger be wrong ? I've also tried What's My IP Address? Networking Tools & More and What Is My IP Address | Shows Your IP Address they still have the old range ! Is there a problem known on the home hub 3 for this?
I have gone into hub again and found that the TCP/IP settings 'Broadband network IP address' is the old range i have been getting with ip burger. Do i have to change something else ?
