WebmastersHow To Change Your IP Address by CYBERWEAVER(op): 12:15pm On Feb 09, 2018
Depending on the type of Internet service you subscribe, you may be getting a static or dynamic IP address from your ISP. A static IP address is a permanent (non-changing) IP address assigned to you. Most residential gateways and smartphones get a dynamic IP address from their ISP whenever they connect to the Internet. In home networks, a gateway (or a router) is getting an IP address from an ISP and shares this public IP address amongst all devices connected within the home network. This article describes how to change an IP address of a dynamically assigned IP address (those assigned via the DHCP).

Change your IP Country with a VPN

You may want to change your public IP address for a variety of reasons. If your IP address is banned by certain game servers or your download allowance from a P2P network has expired, obtaining a different IP address from your current ISP will solve your problem (see instruction below). However, if you wish to bypass regional censorship and wish to obtain an IP address from a different country, changing an IP address from your ISP will not help. For example, if you want to watch BBC, Netflix, Spotify or Hulu from a region where those services are blocked, you will need a VPN service to obtain an IP address of a country where the service is allowed. With VPN, you'll also surf Internet anonymously with added security.

Here are a few VPN providers we recommend:
Vypr VPN (Free Trial or 30 Day Money Back Guarantee)
Hide My Ass (Winter Special, 30 Day Money Back Guarantee)
Express VPN (30 Day Money Back Guarantee)
Pure VPN (7 Day Money Back Guarantee)

Ok, I got it so how do I change IP address?
If you renew your IP address from your current ISP, your ISP may or may not assign you a new IP address. Depending on how you're connected to the Internet, you may have to reset a device. If you're connected via a router, you'll have to change IP address of your router. If you're connected directly to the Internet via a layer-2 gateway, you'll have to change your computer's IP address. Most home network is connected via a router, so chances are that you need to change IP address of your router. In this article, I will describe how to change IP address of your router and also show you how to change IP address of your computer. There are a number of ways to change IP address, so I'll describe easiest method first and then describe a bit more complicated methods.

In order to verify that you've changed an IP address of your device, you'll have to visit Find My IP page of our website.

H[b]ow to change IP address of a router?[/b]
A router is a layer 3 networking device that connects multiple computers to the Internet. In home network with dynamically assigned IP address, a router is assigned a public IP address and all the computers connected to the router are assigned private IP addresses. When computers connected to the router visits the Internet, the world views your computer with a public IP address of your router. So, if you want the world to see you with a different IP address, you'll have to change IP address of the router. Here are a few ways to change IP address of your router.

Turn off your router for a minute and turn it back on. The common nature of DHCP is to "remember" the device and assign you the same IP address you had before, so simply turning off your router and turning it back on will not likely change IP address. However, if you try multiple times you may get lucky and will obtain a new IP address from your ISP. If multiple tries doesn't get you a new IP address, try leaving the router turned off overnight and restart in the morning.
Reconnect your router to your ISP via administrative Interface. Most routers allow you to disconnect from upstream ISP, and reconnect via a point-and-click from the Administrative Console. Each router vendor provides a different UI to achieve this, but once you login to the Administrative Console of the router you should be able to locate the reconnect button. The screenshot below is the method provided by the Asus RT-N66W model.



How to change IP address of a computer?
If you have only 1 computer at home and connects your computer directly to the Internet via an ISP provided gateway, the following method will allow you to change public IP address of your computer. However, if you're connecting to the Internet via a router, changing your computer's IP address will have no impact on how world is viewing your IP address. So, follow this step only if you're connecting your computer to the Internet directly.

Shutdown your computer for a minute and turn it back on. Again, the common nature of DHCP is to assign the device same IP address each time it connects to the network, it's unlikely that you'll receive different address first time your restart your computer. If you restart a few times, you may get lucky and get a new IP address from your router.
Renew your IP address. You may manully release your IP address and obtain a new IP address with Windows ipconfig utility. Please follow the following steps.
On Windows 7 and below, click Start -> Run, and type cmd as shown below. On Windows 8, type WIN key and X key to bring Power User Menu -> Choose Run.



On the Command Prompt screen, run "ipconfig /release" and "ipconfig /renew" commands as shown below. You'll have to start Elevated Command Prompt (Run as System Administrator) to execute ipconfig command.

C:\> ipconfig

Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1
Verify that you have a new IP address by either typing ipconfig command, or by visiting Find My IP page. On our example above, the IP address has been changed from 192.168.1.101 to 192.168.1.102. Again, the nature of DHCP is to assign the device same IP address as before so you may have run this step multiple times to change your IP address.

You may use a proxy server to conceal your true IP address, and borrow an IP from a 3rd-party Proxy provider.
How to change IP address of your smartphone?
If your smartphone is on a WiFi network, changing your IP address will only change private IP address of the smartphone and the public IP address will remain the same. The world only sees your public IP address, so the website that you visited will view your smartphone having the same IP address even though you may have changed it's private address. To change public IP address of your smartphone, you may want to try the following.

Restart your smartphone - Turn off your WiFi, and restart your smartphone. Your smartphone will be obtaining a public IP address from your phone service provider via DHCP, restarting your device will likely get you a new IP address. If you don't get a new IP address, you may want to try this for a few times until you get a new number.
Borrow your neighbor's WiFi IP address - Ask your neighbor if you can use his/her network, and if allowed connect to their WiFi network.
Use someone else's network
As with Hide IP Address, you can always use someone else's network and obtain an IP address from that network. Try using free Wi-Fi services from a local coffee shop, hotel, library or any other public places. An IP address does not travel with your computer, so using someone else's network may be a viable solution.

WebmastersHow To Hide Your IP Address by CYBERWEAVER(op): 11:51am On Feb 09, 2018
When you connect to the Internet, your Internet Service Provider (ISP) assigns you an IP address. When you surf the web, view emails or download a movie from the Internet, your activity can be tracked with your IP address. An IP address can be used to locate a person (although not precisely without a warrant), and trace the Internet activity. To surf anonymously and protect your privacy, you'll need to hide your real IP address.

1. Hide your IP address with a VPN
Virtual Private Network (VPN) offers a connectivity to another network, and when connected your computer receives a new IP address from a VPN provider. Every traffic from your computer routes through the VPN network, so your true IP address assigned by your ISP is hidden. Aside from hiding your IP address, using VPN allows you to access any network even though your network may be geo-restricted. They help you get on the Internet with a different IP address than the one provided by your ISP.

Here are a few VPN providers we recommend:
Hide My Ass (Winter Special, 30 Day Money Back Guarantee)
Vypr VPN (Free Trial or 30 Day Money Back Guarantee)
Express VPN (30 Day Money Back Guarantee)
Pure VPN (7 Day Money Back Guarantee)
For full comparison and company reviews, please visit VPN Comparison page.

2. Mask your IP address with Proxies
There are thousands of free web proxy servers that you can use to hide your IP address and surf anonymously. Browsing through a proxy means that you are not accessing a website directly, but going through a intermediate "proxy" which relays the information back and forth between you and the destination website.

3. Use the Tor Browser

Tor BrowserTor is a free software program that uses a distributed network of relays to communicate anonymously. Tor Browser is a free browser similar to IE, Chrome and Firefox that lets you use Tor network to browse anonymously without revealing your own IP Address. You will have to download and install a version of Tor browser that is compatible with your operating system (i.e. Windows, Mac OS and Linux).

Since Tor uses a network of distributed relays, the performance of Tor Browser is much slower than the native browsers that connects directly to the Internet.

4. Use someone else's network[b][/b][color=#990000][/color]
Alternatively, you may use free Wi-Fi services offered by a coffee shop, hotel or any public locations. An IP address does not travel with your computer, but they are rather assigned by the router colocated in the area you are in. To find your public IP address, try What is My IP.

If you have any questions about hiding IP address, please post your question on Hide and Change IP Address Forum.

Why would you hide your IP address?
You may have your very own reasons for hiding your IP address, but here are a few popular reasons why people would want to hide their public IP address.

Hide your identity from your competitors - You may be commenting on your or competitor's products on various forums, and using your IP address will reveal your identity.
Hide your geographical location - Certain networks prevent users from a specific geographical location, and use of proxy IP address will circumbent this problem.
Prevent Website Tracking - Every website or webpage you visited is tracked by the server hosted by the website owner. By hiding your IP address, your web visits cannot be tracked.
Work around Internet Censorship - Some countries like China implements strict Internet Censorship for a variety of laws and regulations. By hiding your IP address and obtaining a new IP address from a different geolocation, you may bypass Internet Censorship and unblock websites such as Google, YouTube and Facebook which otherwise blocked.
Protect your identity
If you navigate on the Internet with your IP address, your privacy and sensitive information about you can be monitored. With an IP address, your location, your ISP and your privacy or security can be breached. There are full of suspicious people on the Internet, and you need to protect your identity by hiding your IP address and use someone else's instead. There are many tools available to mask your IP address (free and paid), and use 3rd-party IP addresses offered by public companies.

WebmastersStep-by-step Guide To Creating A Website by CYBERWEAVER(op): 11:22am On Feb 09, 2018
Step-by-step guide to creating a website
Step 1
Register a Domain Name
Domain name is a "unique" human readable Internet address. To setup a website, you'll need a domain name. Choose a domain name that is easy to remember, and the one you can match your social media accounts such as Twitter, YouTube or Facebook page.

To register a domain name, you'll have to pick a name that suits your purpose. A domain name can consist of alphabet, numbers, and - (dash). The name cannot start with a dash. The iplocation.net is the domain name we used to publish this website. You may choose to find one that meets your personal or business needs. You may register a domain name online from Godaddy, a deeply discounted ICANN accredited domain registrar. The cost of domain name registration is less than $15 per year. To learn more about domain names, please visit our Domain Names section of this website.

Step 2
Setup Web Hosting from a reputable web host

Web hosting is known as providing storage space for websites, and delivering contents stored on the server to the Internet users when requested. A web hosting provider, also known as the web host, is also responsible for providing databases, email services, and other value-added services for publishing a website. No website can exist without web hosting. Since your website needs to be up 24x7 and you need uninterrupted email services, it is important that you find a reliable web host. Moving a website from one web host to another can be tedious and troublesome, so finding a right web host the first time will save lots of time and hassle.

As with the domain name, there are many reputable web hosts that you can choose from. Managing your domain name and web hosting service together from a single vendor makes it easy to manage your web properties. You may purchase a web hosting service online from Blue Host, a deeply discounted but reputable web host. To learn more about web hosting, please visit our Web Hosting section of this website.

Step 3
Choose a platform (i.e. Wordpress, Drupal or HTML)
[color=#006600][/color]
A website is comprised of many web pages, and each web page is made out of a HTML (HyperText Markup Language) document. Think of a web page as a single page document, and a website as a book containing documents comprising of sections of a book. You may create static web pages to create a website, but use of a content management systems like Wordpress, Drupal or Joomla will ease your construction process.

Of all website exist today, 22% of them are created with Wordpress. Wordpress is one of the most popular content management system existing today with 68% of market share with very large support community. If you're just starting out, choosing the Wordpress as the platform will not disappoint you later.

Most web hosts including Blue Host offer cPanel, which you can use it to install Wordpress. Or, you may spend $5 on Fiverr to find a freelancer who will install Wordpress on your website.

Step 4
Choose a template (or design a website)

Whether you chose to use Wordpress, Drupal or Joomla as your web platform, you will want to style your website to your liking. The advantage of using popular CMS such as Wordpress is ease of styling your website with Themes. There are thousands of Free and Commercial themes available which you can install to create a professional looking website.
Step 5
Publish your website and drive traffic to your website

Once you've designed your website with a new Theme or Template Builder, you'll have to add content to your website. People visit your website with an intent, and as a webmaster of your new website you must fulfill visitors' intent.

With contents added to your website, you're ready to go live. Let your friends and acquaintances know about your website, and gather feedback on shortcomings and improvements you can make. Once you're happy with contents and presentation of the website, let the world know about your website by submitting your website to search engines. The best way to drive traffic to your website is by adding good contents, so continue to add valuable contents as well as promoting your website.
Step 6
Monetize your work (Make money online!)

How do you make money online? Making money online is easier said than done, and over 90% of all website owners give up before making sizable income. Depending on the type of website you own, you'll choose different method of making money. For ecommerce websites, you'll advertise your products on shopping engines and make profit by selling products online whereas bloggers will earn money by selling advertisements or affiliate marketing.
