Re: Change My Telewest Broadband IP Address
Begs the question of why but there are ways depending on how you currently connect. Are you connecting via USB or ethernet and do you use a router?

can u explain this in the right order please.
Go into device manager and then the properties of the network card. In the "advanced" section there is an option to change the network address/ physical address/ mac address. Check the current mac address using ipconfig /all from a command prompt and then increase the mac address by one digit. Reboot everything and you should have a new ip

Re: Change My Telewest Broadband IP Address
Well a sensible question would be "why do you need to change it" ?

Re: Change My Telewest Broadband IP Address
I thought I'd ask it again to reiterate since the OP doesn't seem to know much else about the workings of TCP/IP apart from the fact he/she needs to change the address for some reason.

Re: Change My Telewest Broadband IP Address
Depending on how subscribed you area is, 9 times out of 10 your modem will just pick your existing IP again.

Re: Change My Telewest Broadband IP Address
Rapidshare is a pain in the behind for actually picking up proxy IP addresses etc. Do you upload to rapidshare or download?
