1. If your IP Address is dynamically assigned then just restart your PC and you'll get a new IP Address.

2. If you're talking about the IP address sent out over the Internet, you can't change it. Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) assigns it to you from a pool it, in turn, has been assigned by an international body. Nobody else in the world can have it. But at the same time, if you tried to use a different one, your ISP wouldn't recognize you and would refuse to talk to you.

And I don't think just resetting your router would cause your ISP to give you a different address. You literally have a lease on it for 24 hours based on your computer's registered MAC address. Turning off the router and turning it back on, or even resetting it, would most likely just get you the same address all over again.

Sorry.
