Hello ya'll

Not been on here for a while!

I need to ask a question... i want to change the IP, i have a bthome hub when i turn it off and on the public IP changes, is this essentially all i need to do or do i need to do anything to change mac address etc as described in book as that's still the same as is DNS etc.

So all i need is to turn the router on and off correct? no messing with MAC address etc right?

IF router restart helps, then no need to make life harder.
just always check What's My IP Address? - Obsolete Browser Page

That's pretty much it.

As long as your IP address changes, you're good to go.

Make sure to keep track of your IP as it changes: Track Your IP Address - IPBurger.com

Okay got it thanks guys!

IPBurger is probably the better site to check the IP to make sure it has changed. As mentioned above keep track of them because when you start running multiple accounts you will run into all sort of problems.

Other options if you get bored of changing IP all the time is Fresh IP from 24vc.com

It's always another option
