How can I automatically change my IP address?
I want my apparent IP address to change between a varied selection frequently, it wouldn't matter what the address is, as long as it changes. It would be cool if I could do it through applescript, but I doubt thats possible. I'm not even sure if it is possible short of switching between a list of internet proxies, like proxyfoxy, which would be a little slow for my needs.

- Use proxies or wingates possibly? Depends on your ISP. If you have Qwest DSL, I know that if you change the Q on the PPPoA login name to a capital or a lower case Q and reconnect the modem, it'll change the IP.
- The only easy and cheap way to do this is with proxies. The other option is using a non-router modem, and having all your computers running on internet IP's from your ISP's DHCP, which does work but most ISP's will charge you a rather large sum if you try this. It also means you can't have an internal network (easily). I wouldn't recommend it unless you have quite a bit of networking experience (and knowledge of routing)
- If you're trying to stealth your ID, then check out 'the onion router' which is the best method. Google for URL.
- i recommend download the ip changer http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/Ip-Changer-Download-68099.html or 1. Get to a command prompt. (START, run, cmd). 2. Type "ipconfig /release" (without the quotes). 3. Shut down computer. 4. Turn off computer. 5. Turn off all ethernet hubs/switches. 6. Turn off cable/DSL modem. 7. Leave off overnight. 8. Turn everything back on.
