How to get rid of a IP ban
Today Im going to show you how to get rid of a IP ban on your computer.How it works
This works for a user with "always-on" connections such as cable, dsl, or LAN. If you have dial-up then simply reconnect to the internet. This only works with a Dynamic IP. This will not work if you have a static IP. If you have a Static Ip you will have to phone your ISP (Internet Service Provider) and tell them you want it changed.
Note: if you have a static IP and want it changed it may cost money. Some will do it free for a certain amount of times a year. Some wont do it at all unless you have a good excuse.
Warning: Do Not Do This If You Are Unsure Of What You Are Doing. This only works with static IP's
This is why
Static IP - Will not change when you do this.
Dynamic ip - will change allowing you to do this.
Lets get started
1. Go to Start >> Run >> Type CMD or Start >> Search >> CMD
2. Then type in IPconfig/release
3. After you did that type exit or hit the Close window box
4. Now go to Start >> Control Panel >> Network Connections Or Start >> Search >> Network Connections
5. Right-click your LAN connection >> Properties
6. Select Internet Protocol then click Properties
7. Now select "use the following IP address" and just type in random numbers. Then hit Tab and the subnet mask will default.
8. Now click ok and accept all that.
9. Go back to Internet Protocol
10. Select "obtain IP address automatically"
Click okay and close
Finished!
Now you Should Be able to go on whatever you were IP banned for on your computer (Forums, Games etc...)
Remember This Does Not Work With A Static IP

- Windows
