KCToker Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 If I understand what you're saying, you will get a new IP from your router, but your global IP won't change. Let me explain better: Your ISP (Internet Service Provider) has given you an IP through your modem, that IP is seen by everyone on the internet. Routers for LANs (and WLANs) "split" the internet connection of the modem. However, to do that, it has to give you a "network" IP, this is an IP that will only be seen on your (W)LAN. Changing comps may (or may not) change your network IP, but it should not change your global IP (the one you are given by your ISP). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
