How to change your IP ( XP and vista)

[Tweker]

Hi, Since I got the bot and all I needed to understand/install it, I decided I'd give back to the community.


First the warnings :

1) Avoiding a temporary ban is against the term of use ( at least I think it is) so doing this may lead to a permanant ban

2) Some internet provider do not allow costumer to use more than a certain amount of mac adress per day, call them and ask how many you are allowed.

3) This might not work if you are using a router

4) Some internet provider need to be contacted to apply the mac adress change

5) Some network card wont allow you to change your mac adress

That being said:




For windows XP

Keep in mind my windows is in french so the translation may not be exactly the same, but I'm sure its going to be similar enough.

Step 1)

Step 1) Click Start > run > Type cmd and press enter

Step 2) Type ipconfig /release

Step 3) Go in the control pannel > Network Connections > right click the internet conneciton and go in properties

Step 4) Select the TCP/IP and press properties
Thats what you should have


change it to this (note: just type anything, no need to be exactly this)


Press Ok, and press Ok on the second window as well.

Step 5) Right click your connection again > properties > click tcp/ip > properties and undo what you did ( select assigne Ip and DNS automatically)

Step 6) Go back to the command prompt window and type Ipconfig /renew


For Vista:

Step 1) Start > Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center > Manage Internet Connection (on the left side menu)

Step 2) right click the connection and go in properties

Step 3) Click the configure button

Step 4) Select the advanced tab and select localy administered adresse
By default, the ''not present'' is selected

Select value and enter your desired MAC adresse
Step 5) unplug your modem and restart your computer

Step 6) plug the power of your modem back on and enjoy your new IP

If your internet does not work after this, do step 1 to 6 but at step 4 you put it back to the default setting ''not present''




Hope this helps a few people

OMG! This Changes your Local NAT IP not your IP!!!!!!!!!! DHCP Lease from ISP = 7 days. only way u can change IP within the 7 days or how ever long they set it up in the DHCP Scope is CALLING THEM!


The only way i see this working is you plugged right into you modem and pulled a real IP on your PC. Switch is very unsecured since you no longer have NAT

But if you do plug right into you modem, you will have a hard time trying to Manuel type in a IP address. Since you dont know if that IP has been givin to another place. Have phun with this one lol

IP Banned = Range IP, if u have 2 computers or have someone in the same town as u playing they can all be IP banned since there on the same DHCP Scope.


"change it to this (note: just type anything, no need to be exactly this)"

HAHAHAH your Changing your DNS information and u say change to this lol. Name Resolution is a big part of networking when it come to resolving usaest.battle.net to a IP Address.

ok, for the windows xp part, I must admit, I don'T exactly know whats going on, all I know is that it DOES change your ip. I used it for many many years, avoiding realm down, getting unbanned on Vent.


As for the windows vista, it changes your physical addresse, most of the times,internet provider provide 1 ip per physical adresse, therefore, if you change your phisical adresse, you change your IP.

Please don't flame if you did not try it[COLOR="Silver"]

[/COLOR]Oh, I think you missunderstood the windows XP one.

When you type anything in the box, it doesnt have to be a valid IP or anything.

lets say you start with the ip 111.222.111 when the seting is on automaticcaly select IP

you click on use the folowing IP and type anything ( thats not the ip you are going to have) and save the setting

You go back into the setting and put automaticcaly select ip and you end up 222.111.222 ( not the same ip as the first you had)

Once again, this wont work for everyone, it depends on your network card and internet provider
