Check out the best ways to modify your IP
A VPN, or virtual private network, encrypts your internet connection & passes it through a server in your chosen location. Websites, online services, and other web-connected devices will only see the IP address of the VPN server, not your real IP address.
You can get a new IP address by unplugging your internet modem, waiting some time, and plugging it back in again. When this occurs, you terminate your current IP address so that your ISP can recycle it. Then, when you reconnect, your ISP assigns you a new IP address.
Proxies work the same way VPNs do, but significantly less flexibility and security. Because websites and other online resources see the proxy server's IP address rather than your own, your internet connection flows through a middleman server. Proxy servers, unlike VPNs, often lack encryption, only affect a limited number of apps, and can leak your IP address in other ways.
It may seem self-evident, but leaving your current network and connecting to a different one will give you a different IP address. If you're on a smartphone, you can, for example, switch to a different wifi network or from wifi to mobile data.
Ask your internet service providers for a new IP address. Every ISP has different policies about handling such requests so responses may vary. At a minimum, you'll need your account information and current IP address on hand.
