Call your cable provider.

Or get into IP spoofing...

dang, i was counting on using that.

the reason i wanted something is because i cant get into a animal crossing site to update my catalog. some other people have the same problem. i cant even register with a new nick. i can browse the forums and everything but they are of no help. when they sent me the registration e mail about a month ago it had my address on it, so i think maybe trying a new address would help.

Again with the static/dynamic confusion....

Actually, most make you pay extra for a static IP that DOESN'T change.

heh got me there. yeah i knew there was something special about static ips and money. makes sense now. i have dynamic but it take a month for the ip to change. sometimes 2 months.

how about something to mask your ip ? or something like that. so the site doesent see it.

Yet another reason I have DSL. All I have to do to get a different IP is disconnect and reconnect my DSL modem.

Can't you just power cycle the modem and it will change?
To see when you're IP would change on it's own, just go to the command prompt and type 'ipconfig/all' and look for Lease expires.

I have cable as well. my ip is dynamic, which is a good thing for me

someoneElse · Post by **someoneElse** » Sun Feb 09, 2003 12:39 pm

I've had the same 'dynamic' IP for the past couple of years that I've had a Cable internet connection. Never changed. Not once.

I guess that just means Charter is lazy..

Couldn't you just use a proxy server?

tried that. it says it expires on thurs. does my pc have to be on for it to change or no ?

No, what will happen is your PC will realize it's Thursday and will try to get on with an IP of 0.0.0.0, which is your computer's way of saying "I need a new IP." Then the ISP will assign you a new one. <sarcasm>Duh...

I don't think your PC has to be on, it should change no matter what.

Almost as funny as "dramic recompiliation" or something like that...

when it's really dynamic binary translation, commonly mislabeled as "dynamic recompiler".

different ip address
