Have you ever gotten an IP Ban from some dumb game or site?
Thats probably the reason why you reading this post.
I have found out by my ISP that once the physical hashed house address is changed, then the IP is forced to change. Apply the following guide and you should be free from your sins.

NOTE:
This guide has only been tested with Windows 7.

Step 1:
Goto Network and sharing option in from the control panel options, then look on the left of the window, were you will see "change adapter settings", then click that option.
double click your primary adapter settings then select the "Details" button, after that just keep that in the background.

Step 2:
after you have minimized your details window, go back to the window that shows the adapters you have, right click on your primary adapter this time, and select your properties option. A window should pop up and then click the button "configuration". then select the tab which is named "Advance" then scroll down to a option called "network address" and select it.

Step 3:
from their you will see your default setting will be set to "not present". click the first option, then you will see a box to the right of it open and you'll see a bunch of 0's.. From here the "details' window which i asked you to open before, will be used.

Step 4:
If you look in you "details" box you'll see an option "physical address" and a number with letters next to it.
Example:
00-11-1D-11-1C-2B

that will be your physical address hashed in digital form. Then go back to the the physical address option were you see the 0's remove it and type you entire physical address in but with the changing of the last letter or number.
you can pick any Number from 1-9 or any letter from A-F..

Example:
(PHYSICAL ADDRESS IN THE DETAILS BOX) 00-11-1D-11-1C-2B

(PHYSICAL ADDRESS IN THE NETWORK ADDRESS OPTION) 00-11-1D-11-1C-2C

Note:
if your physical address already by default ends with an A B C D E or F, do not use the same letter.

Step 5:
We are almost done, this is the last step..
Now if you have done all the above steps. and pressed ok.. your internet should be disconnected automatically. due to the IP changing. then go back to the "adapter settings" right click on your primary adapter and select "Disable". and turn your modem off and disconnect the broadband plug (Ethernet cable).
wait 1-2 minutes and reconnect everything, but wait till your modem lights has indicated its online (connected to the internet). once you are 100% sure you are connected. Enable your primary adapter by right clicking and selecting Enable. and in should take a few seconds.
From then you should be working with a new IP.
You can check Run>CMD>IPconfig /all> (IPv4 Address) or also seen with the "Preferred" sign next to it.





If you have any problems or your are confused with any section, post below and i shall help you out !
 
Also know, that this may not work, due to some site ban'ing your subnet aswell, subnet can be changed by using a Static IP
 
Kinda pointless for most people as they are sitting behind natted routers. Their routers details will more likely be used.

Perhaps, but its worth a try, not all modems react the same, as i said, i only tested it on windows 7.

Surely you mean MAC address? The IP changes because you break the connection by updating the MAC address & so get assigned a new one.

As ponder said though, unless you're dialing a PPPoE connection from the PC you'd need to reset the router to get a new IP. The outside world can't even seen your internal network IP or MAC address if its behind a NAT so changing it won't change the addr the banning server is seeing.

means Physical Hashed House address, everyones house address is hased to numbers and letters

LMAO. How about you type "network card physical address" into Google and click on the I'm feeling lucky button. You'll learn something new...I promise.
 
I'm still getting into Networking, but the physical address of a network card/adaptor is the MAC address, which is represented by colons or dashes, which includes numbers and letters, as you say. Thanks, useful information.
 
This is about changing your mac address, is about the most pointless guide I have read, lol. Fun read though.

Is this how all internet connections work?
So when I am on 3G...I wonder what house address it uses then? toughy question that one.
 
Well you are half way there. First off it is called a MAC address that is the physical address of the network card. What happens is that your specific IP is blocked for some reason on some site. Now simply releasing and renewing your IP won't work as a fix, as all IP leases are valid for a set amount of time set by the admin of the DHCP server, we are talking about hours here. You release the IP and on renewing it your card sends a request to the DHCP server requesting an IP. The identifier used is the MAC address, the DHCP server then sees you still have a valid lease in the system so you are issued the same IP address you had previously.

On changing the MAC address your NIC sends a request to the DHCP server identifying it with a new MAC address, your old IP is still in use according the lease information by your original MAC address so the DHCP server has no choice but to dish out a new IP address that is why IP bans alone is not effective.

Chaning your MAC will also only work if you are not in a NAT environment as the IP address of the router is what the outside world will see. So for this to work you will need to make a PPPOE connection from your PC. And if you do that it will work on all systems not only Windows. However even if you use a PPPOE connection from your PC a number of ISPs use proxies and that is the IP that the site will see and they will ban that IP. In effect blocking everyone using that proxy. And finally this is called MAC spoofing. Google it.

i've only tried it with my Modem, i work by telkom thats how i know this.. The last digit will change of your IP, PM me if you encounter any troubles

Dude dude dude, CMD > Ip config /all > IPv4 (it will be changed, IPv4 isnt a mac address)
On changing the MAC address your NIC sends a request to the DHCP server identifying it with a n
 
Lol. This thread fails on so many levels...

Follow the bloody guide before you make insulting comments

Dude, you're just digging a deeper hole for yourself.

You lack an understanding of how things work.

Dude I don't even know what you are trying to say here. What I tried to explain to you but clearly you are too arrogant to even listen is the following. Doing a simple ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew will not give you a new IP as the DHCP lease information still exist for your actual MAC.

When changing the MAC address you will get a new IP as the old IP is still leased on your old MAC address. Furthermore this won't work in most cases as most people are NATed behind their routers.

The "trick" here isn't changing the last digit it is changing the original MAC address you can change it to anything you want and you will get a new IP.

And for what it is worth, somewhere you said "I work by Telkom that's how I know this" If I was you I wouldn't shout that too loudly on this forum Telkom is not the most loved company on these forums :)
