How do I know what type of IP address I have?

The first part of the question is easy you can go to this site http://www.whatismyip.com/ and it will show you your IP address. Now to change your IP address that is complicated. It depends on what type of IP you have, is it static or dynamic the following page gives a helping hand to distinguish between them http://searchwindevelopment.techtarget.com/definition/static-IP-address-dynamic-IP-address Now to change the IP if you have a static IP requires having to talk to your service provider and explaining why you need to change the address. A dynamic IP will change on it's own. You say you have a major problem but specify what kind of problem, if possible call the help lines of your service provider and hopefully from there they will be able to tell you what you need to do and who to call to try and solve the problem.

Hi, you can find type of Ip you are using by reseting the modem .first you can find your Ip using http://www.ip-details.com/ and then reset the modem then check the Ip of your computer If it is same It is static Ip address or It it is Dynamic Ip address.You can't change your Ip easily,You can contact ISP to change the Ip of your computer,But you can hide your Ip by using Proxy servers.....

changing your ip address isn't that easy. First of all, what problem are you having? 2nd, what operating system are you using. Answer those 2 questions so we can help you with your problem. Changing the ip address is relatively easy but changing it is not guaranteed to solve your problem. Btw, are you connected to a local network or directly to your internet service provider (ISP)?

The one who suggested Whatsmyip.org is right. But changing your IP depends on what type of connection you have (Dynamic/Static).

What exactly is your problem?If you want to change your IP address you have to know your operating system and the type of connection you have.I also want to change my IP address because I'm having troubles connecting to myLot but I can connect smoothly with other websites,other types of connections and from public computers.I've come to think that maybe someone is trying to block me from accessing from myLot.I have search the internet and found out there are lots of computer tutorials about this on youtube.Just type your specific problem,with your OS.
