There are some people whose provider assign a static IP.
If that is the case, there is no chance to change it.
My ISP assigns me a new IP everytime I reboot the router.
If you want to host something with a dynamic IP, there are no problem, as long as free services like no-ip.com exists.
1 reason wold be in case someone finds my ip i simply change it and not have problem with a possible ip attack
one more reason is simply by escape by a possible banip in games like cs 1.6(just an example)
and i agreed with dotnix about letting your router offline for X hours/days
ISP give ip dinamic but you can only change it by asking them or changing your ip using mac clone(like me)
just ask your ISP
have you tryed to reset the router with reset botton? with some circumstances it helps
ozzieJ,
If you have a dynamic IP dy design (ie. you have a cable ISP) a great way to assign a quasi-static "IP," if you want to call it that, is to use a DNS. Have you checked into this?
To do this just set up a free dyndns account and follow this lifehacker tut:
Geek to Live: How to assign a domain name to your home web server
Also, and this is for both you and ovidiu21... MAC address clone is, from what I understand, basically a way of showing you ISP that your computer is connected to the internet. Please let me explain better. For example, your ISP may only want you to connect one computer to one cable modem, unless you pay to lease one of their routers (they are less than forthcoming with how to do it yourself). What you can do is connect your most used or main computer to the modem directly and reset (power on/off, the modem) it so that the modem recognizes the MAC address from your NIC (network interface card). Then if connect your router to the main computer and ping (Web-interface) into your router at 192.168.x.x, or whatever IP you have assigned to the default gateway (your router), from this main computer you can clone the mac address of the NIC to the router (so that the router looks like your main computer to the ISP). Now if you connect the modem to the router and reset (power on/off) them both all they will be happy and more than one computer can get on the net (now with DHCP where multiple IPs are assigned as a function of the default gateway IP, eg. if your default gateway IP is 192.168.1.1 then you can have something like 50 DHCP clients connected to the router in the IP range 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.150).
