Change IP

I've been trying to figure out how to change my IP recently. My ISP Optimum Online and my WAN IP is dynamic. I've tried tons of different things to change my IP and only two things work.

1) Unplug my router for a really long time(a week)
2) Clone my MAC Address, which works but when it only switches between 2 address and thats it.

I have a Belkin Router and can change the lease period for my IP

Any ideas?

try there.try windows second option..it worked for me.

 

Or you can just use a proxy. Marlene wrote a great guide here:

I use a router too, but it's worked for me like... Doing the IP release and letting it sit over night with everything unplugged.

I know you said you tried a few things but did you make sure to release the ip before shutting everything down?

 

Ive never really done that no, i guess ill have to try it. Thanks. What kind of router do u have btw

 

No problem, I believe it's a Linksys Wireless Broadband router.

 

Oh ok i guess ill have to try that. Do you have optimum online too? Because the ISP usally makes a big difference in how your IP changes
