To acquire a new IP address,
restart your internet router, use a VPN, or, on Windows, type ipconfig /release then ipconfig /renew in the Command Prompt. For a public IP change, disconnect your modem for a few minutes to force a new DHCP lease. Mobile devices can toggle Airplane Mode or change Wi-Fi network settings.
Methods to Acquire a New IP Address
Restart Router (Most Common): Unplug your router for at least 5-10 minutes to trigger a new IP address assignment from your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
Command Prompt (Windows): Open Command Prompt (run as admin), type ipconfig /release to drop your current IP, and then ipconfig /renew to acquire a new one.
Use a VPN: Connect to a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to instantly change your public IP address to a different location.
Toggle Airplane Mode (Mobile): Turn Airplane Mode on for 30 seconds and off again to reset your mobile IP.
Connect to a Different Network: Switch from your home Wi-Fi to mobile data or a public hotspot.
Contact ISP: Request that your Internet Service Provider change your dynamic IP address.
