I simply wish to change my IP.

How can I do that please without creating any problems ?

A web link gave this -
"Click Start->Run, type cmd and press Enter. Type ipconfig /release at the prompt window, press Enter, it will release the current IP configuration. Type ipconfig /renew at the prompt window, press Enter, wait for a while, the DHCP server will assign a new IP address for your computer."

Is this correct, easy and safe ?

I cut the power to my computer for 10 minutes - same IP
