I know that while on the internet I have a IP address set to my computer, I also know that in order to get a new IP address I would have to restart my Router , and so I was wondering if there is a way of getting my IP to change every so often, or even hiding my IP address? I would restart my router but it can be awkward at times since the router is in my living room and my computer is upstairs in my room.
Also I have registered on dyndns.com and created a dynamic dns host and added the settings to my router, although It doesn't seem to do anything.
How Do you change a public IP address?
By all means try using a proxy, but in my experience if you visit an IP site like:
http://www.ip-adress.com/
Your IP still remains the same even though it's supposedly changed.
The ONLY way i've succeeded is with a program called Hide My IP:
http://www.hide-my-ip.com/
There are bound to be others available that DO work as well, and DO change the IP when you visit the %26quot;check my IP%26quot; sites. The downside of this is, depending on what country your %26quot;new IP%26quot; is situated in, there will be a slower browsing and download speed.
Good Luck !
How Do you change a public IP address?
i don't think you can change it ,
an ip address is premanent ,
if you could change it then those hackers and child porn watchers would never get caught
to hide it just use a proxy, its much simpler and much easier solution. just search for a web proxy on google.
Using a dynamic IP wouldn't help in your situation.
You could open
Start -%26gt;
Run -%26gt;
Type:
cmd.exe
send ipconfig /release
send ipconfig /renew
(This will reset your IP/renew)
Or another solution to keep your IP completely hidden would be to use a PROXY.
You can use a proxy for a one-time visit by using a web-proxy, ( http://www.prospector.cz/Free-Internet-s鈥?/a> ) scroll down to %26quot;Links%26quot;
or you can use a %26quot;static%26quot; proxy, try www.download.com and search: Proxy or Hide IP.
Goto this website it will show you how to change your ip address:

The internet servers need to know where to send the data or html source code so that's why you need a IP address.
Ex:
You %26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt; Web Server
You %26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt; Web Server
The way to hide your IP address is to use a %26quot;proxy%26quot;
Ex:
You %26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;Proxy %26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;Web Server
You%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;Proxy %26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;Web Server
you can link them too.
You %26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;Proxy1 %26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;Proxy2 %26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;Proxy3 %26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt; Server
You %26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;Proxy1 %26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;Proxy2%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;Proxy3%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;Server
You IP is still exposed to the first proxy though, some proxies keep logs or even save the text you sent through it. There are some other flaws too, if java loads, for example, it could be coded to get the IP of the computer that it's runing on and send it... So it would have your IP and send it through the proxy back to the server. Also beware: the government is watching the %26quot;backbones%26quot; now - that means if you accidently type and send a %26quot;keyword%26quot; then the government will intercept the data before it even reaches the proxy. The data is then stored by NSA. That's why you shouldn't send anything over the internet that could get you into trouble.
You can have the proxy be a website and run it through your browser; that is the easiest way ------%26gt; http://proxy.org/
There are more extravegant methods too: --------%26gt;http://www.torproject.org/
(Some people think that the government might have backdoored it though)
I always go http://www.ipflag.com/ to make sure that my %26quot;apperent%26quot; IP address realy changed and isn't my real one.
