[SOLVED] Changing ip adress on Asus RT-series

[mrexploreros9]

Hello,

I would like to change my ip adress displayed at any "what is my ip"-kind of websites.

Already done mac cloning, but it still displays the same IP.

Is there any way except to cantact an ISP or buy VPN to make it done?

Thanks.

That is your public IP address. Given to you by the ISP.
You cannot change it on your own.

Why do you desire to change it?

Thank you for your reply.

I love how everyone is curious about that.

However, i use one website quite often and after some time at the day, it kicks the Captcha on and it's very annoying to click the images.. My only luck is that i have 3 Routers at home, so I switch between them, but I wanted to eliminate it and use my main one.

Thanks

3 routers?
That maybe the issue.

But...you cannot change that public IP address. That is almost like changing your house address.

And the reason for the ask is that the vast majority of questions like this result from someone getting banned from some service, and wanting to get around that ban with a different public IP address.

I mean, i use my main and it has devided connections between next 2. (like extenders)
But i wonder, why do I have a different Ip adress, when I switch to the next router (It has the same ISP)

So I wanted to know, if there is any way to change something in my main router, to skip switching like a crazy man between these 3

We need a much clearer description of your setup.
Pictures would help.

There should only be one device talking to the outside world.

Here is my setup https://prnt.sc/u3lz66
I got a large houseplace, so that's why I use this setup (don't blame me)

The ISP serves up one and only one IP address to the modem.
The modem passes that through to the first router.
This first router hands out private IP addresses, generall in the 192.168.1.xxx range.

Any "router" after that needs its DHCP function disabled. It is merely a switch and WiFi access point.

Your public IP address should not change.

It should have no impact on your connection to the internet no matter which of the many routers you connect to in your house. The main router hooked to the ISP modem is the only one that matters and it has the actual public IP address.

If switching between your internal routers fixes it then you have some other issue than your public IP since it is the same for all the equipment in the house no matter how you connect to it.

Although it might not work sometime if you turn off your modem overnight you might get a new IP address. Sometime you must leave if off for a couple days depending on how long the ISP set the lease for.
