    NIC and your IP

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Your right FE. I am also glad for the info (NIC 101) lol. Anyhoo any PC did not come with multiple ethernet ports and the one one I have is from an old Prosignia server which I intend to install on my PC of 2007.  :D

    All in all this was a thread to be murphed with an old topic (I couldn't find) and inform the starter on possibilities. Thanks again FE

    NIC and your IP

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I was looking for an old thread reguarding this matter and I believe a member was interested in changing their IP addy, I also remember a senior member posting info on changing the NIC addy to change ones' IP.

    Anyhoo I wanted to inform anyone that if you have more than one ethernet port this can be done with realitive ease, here's what I have been doing.

    1. I have cable and use a MotoSB5120

    2. I have 3 ethernet ports (1 dual port Netelligent 10/100TX and 1 integrated 10/100/1000)

    -1st. With my PC on all I did was run the command prompt: ipconfig /flushdns, then ipconfig /release power down the modem and then the PC.

    -2nd. Unplug the the ethernet connection at the PC end and replug into ethernet port 2 or 3 and power up the PC (not the modem).

    -3rd. After PC is powered up power up the modem and wala.

    Conclusion: I can have my IP changed every time I do this procedure.

    *Footnote* I even logged 9 speed results at DSLReports because I did this.

    Forget that boost, I'd just prefer having a constant DLUP package like 160002000.

    FiOS now in WNY

    in Verizon FIOS

    Posted

    Well that's right so far as the southtowns already have FiOS. We know it's in Orchard Park and I believe it's gonna roll-out south to Hamburg and after that I have no clue. I did a lot of browsing over the last couple of months to learn more on when Verizon's FiOS and Adelphia's Extreme services will roll-out in Western N.Y. and it's difficult unless you or I know of someone that actually has it here - Oh Well.

    *raises eyebrow

    I'm paying 59.99 for something between 600/24 and 1000/78 or so.  And that's if it's working...

    Right...Here I am paying $59.95 a month for Adelphia's premiere - 6000768!!! Hell if Adelphia would roll-out there dam Extreme service (160002000) I wouldn't care about Verizon UNLESS they offered FiOS here that can beat the price of Adelphia.

    Much better to pay the ~$120.00 for a licensed copy.

    That's true. Now take into consideration all the people that are computer savy who reformat their HDD's, replace their HDD's or buyassemble their PC's, that original license is only valid for soo long...until you spend another $120.00.

    It has it's pros & cons and from my point of view people do what they need to do.  :D
