Basically, my question is, can you change the wifi IP on different sessions. Like you have a different wifi IP on YouTube and Facebook.

I want to change my IP so that if anyone tries to track my location they can't find me. Is there a way to do this?  I know it is possible by changing IP address, but I don't have any idea how to do this. I am trying to download some torrents which are not available in my country.

I need to configure my wireless router so all wireless devices are on a different subnet (192.168.2.1).  The wireless devices should be able to access the internet, but ideally not the workstations on the LAN.  Here is my network:    All suggestions welcome!

Is is possible to force IP connections over the wired ethernet if it is connected and over wireless LAN if the wired ethernet is unavailabe (e.g. cable disconnected). Both network connections would be part of the same subnet.

When clicking from  on network profile, the result is Page not found. Presumably the user has an account only on Area51.  I reported a similar issue . That issue got , but that one was about the case where a users' only account was on a private beta site, and the broken link I'm presently reporting is when a users' only account is on Area51.

is there a way I can find information about my wifi connections? Which networks I was connected to and when? I had tried to look for this information under proc/net but found nothing. (To be more specific I want to find this information on my android device.)

Has anyone ever seen this ‘Devices’ section in the Wi-Fi Settings page?  It very strange, it's my first time I've seen this. Even more, when I tried to connect to this SSID, iOS pops up a dialog which says "x is not connected to the Internet; Are you sure you want to use this network?"  What is this? How was this achieved?

My Windows system got an 169.xx.xx.xx IP address the other day, and I fixed the issue, but why did Microsoft chose this address as the default?    Why not 1.xx.xx.xx or 255.xx.xx.xx? Did one guy at Microsoft say      Hey, pick a number 1 to 255....who just said 169?! OK, we're going with that for our Windows default IP address.

When I turn on the Apple hotspot feature, is it an isolated network, or can I see other devices on it?  Can I use it to connect a third device to a Chromecast?  As in tablet -> iPhone with hotspot (and cellular data off) -> Chromecast?  I want to use a Chromecast while on holiday!

Sometimes I need to send my traffic to a proxy, sometimes I don't.  Currently, I have to go to the settings every time to click it.  Is there any simple way for me to switch this? For instance, use a shell command to do this.

My wireless router shows the IP address is 113.46.75.*, which some websites like ip138.com, www.ip.cn show as my IP.   But other websites, like googling for "what is my ip", www.whatismyip.com, www.whatsmyip.org, show that my IP is 121.18.126.*.   I am very curious why this happens and how is it possible.   So, why do different websites show that I have different IPs?  Thanks all!  Plus: I changed my IP address several times (restarting the modem) and all addresses is like 113.46.*.*, but my IP address does not change when googling for "what is my ip".  My ISP is a small company, so I think it is true that when visiting some websites, I am NATted or proxied to some IP addresses which have access to those websites -- not to avoid firewall though, since I am still blocked from some websites.  But I still want some more information or resources to support our guess. Thank you!

When connecting my PC to Android Wi-Fi hotspot, it assigned a 192.168.42.x address to my PC. I really need to change this as it conflicts with one of our work subnets - is this possible?

Is it possibe to change the channel my phone broadcasts its Wi-Fi hotspot on?   Right now it's using the same channel as my neighbour (6). My router is reporting several unused slots.

I have a couple of modem/routers that came with ISP services that are no longer being used. At the moment I have the current ISP's router running the wireless network and a wired portion to a couple of rooms. In one of those rooms I have a switch to connect all the computers there to the cable coming from the router.  In the other room I have a couple of cables (actually one split into two) but I need at least one additional wired connection there.  Can I convert the existing routers that I have to behave as switches? I don't want these routers to control their own subnet giving IPs to devices connected to it. They should be as transparent to the network as if I just had a few additional wired connections available there.

first question here. I was using wifi normally on my phone. Then I turned it off and after some time turned it back again. Since then I can not access the internet. It's showing Connected(no internet access).  I tried to set the IP static. It did not work for DNS 192.168.200.1. No matter what IP I set with this DNS it does not work. Then used the 8.8.8.8 as DNS, now it's connected. But it is really slow, and the connection does not seem stable. Every time I have to reload google.com several times just to get the page.  The problem is specific to this device only. Other devices connected to the same network are perfect.  Can someone suggest me what should I do? Is this a router issue? Or is this my device problem?  I'm new in this area. So my knowledge is not so deep and you might have to explain things a bit more in detail for me to grasp the concept.

How do I make it appear that my IP address is coming from one country while I'm located in another? I live in Germany and some websites (like Hulu or Youtube) don't work because my IP isn't in the US. How do I get around this? Do I have to use a proxy or something?

So basically, I'd like to use iwconfig to connect to my wifi network when I'm not inside X. But I just don't see a way to do it in the man page. Any idea?

If I do not have access to the router / DHCP server to create a static reservation (i.e. asking the router / DHCP server to set aside a specific IP address when a certain MAC address requests it), how can I set my Windows 7 workstation to have a static IPv4 address?
