Method 3
Depending on your ISP , this may be a good method for you. I have cable broadband. Although my IP is dynamic, it hasn't changed for years. I tried every method out there.
There is a very simple way to get around this. "Spoof your MAC address."
What is a MAC Address?
To Simply put your MAC address is a unique ID assigned to your network card or router.
Example:
My ISP for instance, sees the MAC address of my network card, and always assigns me the same address, even if my router or modem are off for extended periods of time.
So i use a program called Technitium MAC Address Changer Very simple program and very useful. You can change you MAC address with this as many time as you want, and go back and use a old MAC address if you want.
How it Works:
Let's say your ISP assigns your ip 1.1.1.1 with MAC address A
You spoof your MAC address to MAC address B.
If you reconnect, you will now see your IP address has changed to 1.1.1.2
Need a new IP? Change your MAC address to C, and now your IP address is 1.1.1.3
But Wait! Need to use the address 1.1.1.2 for some reason? Simply change the MAC address back again to MAC address B. and BOOM
