    As most people, I have a dynamic IP address. I have a problem with it, it will never change. How can I make it change? Using this doesn't work: http://gyazo.com/d360fb173fdff550e274f50b8fb42502

    Are you sure its not a fixed IP address that you have? 
    A fixed IP address will not change.

    Hi iMrApex



    altor is correct, as part of the eircom broadband service eircom do provide a dynamic / fixed IP address that will not change.


    We do offer static IP address - There is a one off charge of €50 to set up a static IP address with eircom.he charge.

    If you can call the eircom NET department: - eircom net 1800 203204

    Select option 1

    Next select option 2

    Then finally select option 3

    They can go through the all the information with you and they can issue the order for you directly if you decide to go ahead.

    Thanks, Mark

    I'm not asking for a static IP address, my problem is I'm not being assigned a new dynamic IP address every so often. I pretty much have a static IP address due to the fact my "Dynamic" IP address never changes, even when I click "release" beside my current IP address it assigns me my usual IP.

    Why do you want to change? Have you been blocked from something?
