Changing IP Adre4ss -- help please

[Bexley]

A couple of years ago I had trouble with my cable Modem and tested the system by
changing the IP through a command-line instruction. Now I can't remember what
it is, or what the process was. Any ideas?

TIA

I believe you mean "ipconfig". As in

ipconfig /release

ipgonfig /renew

ipconfig /? for instructions

That's the one! Thanks, Bob.

ipconfig /renew will "renew" an IP address on a
machine that uses DCHP.

To change an address on a machine that does
NOT use DHCP, you need to use the netsh command.
