[QUOTE="kevinoh33, post: 1285506, member: 148925"] Why is it that when I connect my computer to my cable modem, my ip address is completely different than connecting my computer to my netgear wireless router? I checked both on [url=http://whatismyipaddress.com/]What Is My IP Address? Lookup IP, Hide IP, Change IP, Trace IP and more...[/url] and they turned out to be different ip addresses. The ip address started with only 2 digits before the period (69.xxx.xx.xxx) does that have to do with anything? Is there any way I can change the IP address when I'm connected to my netgear wireless router so that when I go on [url=http://whatismyipaddress.com/]What Is My IP Address? Lookup IP, Hide IP, Change IP, Trace IP and more...[/url] it shows a different ip address? EDIT: When I first checked my ip address from the link above when I was connected to my router. It was (69.xxx.xx.xxx). Then when I plugged my computer to the cable modem the ip address was (173.x.xxx.xx). Then I connected back to the netgear router and I checked the IP address again and it was the same as before (69.xxx.xx.xxx). I tried turning off the modem and router on and off and nothing changed.
