to the site.
You have in essence renewed you IP if you have restarted the modem and your pc.
The other way to do it is
Running XP go to run type-cmd on the black screen type-ipconfig
note the IP address it should look like 123.45.678.123 or a mixture of 2/3 numbers.
Now type-ipconfig /release
this should give you a 0.0.0.0 IP
then type-ipconfig /renew
this should give either a new IP or the same as you started with.
