Change Your IP Address!

Okay, this tutorial is going to teach you how to change your IP address which is visible to the websites and servers you connect to on the internet.

Okay, so what you have to do is this. [EXACTLY].

1>>Go to Run and open command prompt by typing 'cmd' and pressing enter.

2>>Now type 'ipconfig/release' without quotes.

3>>Now type 'exit' and leave the command prompt.

4>>Now go to Start>>Connect to>>Show all connections. This will open network connections.

5>>Right click the network adapter you use to connect to the internet and click properties.

6>>Double click on Internet Options(TCP/IP)

7>>Select Use the following IP address and enter any random address in the IP field.

8>>Subnet mask will automatically appear. Leave the 'Default gateway' field empty.

9>>Now click Ok, save the settings and exit. Wait for 60 seconds.

10>>Now again go to properties of the same adapter.

11>>Double click the TCP/IP option again and this time select 'Obtain an IP address automatically'.

12>>Click OK and exit.

13>>You have a new IP address.

Note: The above given method does not sometimes work when you're connecting to Internet through a router specially in some asian countries.

In case you're using a router and this doesn't work, just restart your router and you'll have a new IP address.
