Advice needed switching ISP while still connected to the first one

[Madaboutbullterriers]

Hi,

Hoping someone could help me - I am going to swop ISP's but I am still contracted to mweb for the time being until end Nov 2014 - Meanwhile I would like to try afrihost (cheaper 75 g + 75 g deal) what I would like to know is how to tell my router to look for Afrihost instead of mweb? also how can I find my routers ip address so I can get into the settings? it's a I-kom router from Mweb? appreciate the feedback thanks

Start -> run -> cmd
Ipconfig /all

Look for Default Gateway - this is likely the router IP

Telling your router to "look for Afrihost instead of Mweb" is basically just changing your ISP login details on the router.

^ That. It works.
