AT&T UVerse IP Addresses - Static????

[Vraciu]

I'm having trouble on my UVerse account.  There is one particular site I am on that will block my IP every so often when my router changes IP addresses.  I think it blocked someone who was assigned the same one, not sure.

What can I do to quickly force Uverse to assign me a new IP when this happens?

I've depowered my entire system where it comes in the wall from the street.  Left it off for an hour.   Same address got assigned again.

 

I'm using a BGW210-700 modem.    It's driving me nuts.

it's only the Internet service provider that can do this (if they want/can) for you.

I called my ISP and they got me an fixed external IP address (for extra cost per month)

Back in the days of DSL I used to be able to get a new IP whenever I wanted by power cycling the DSL modem (but always in the same subnet). Now-a-days with cable modems and fiber that doesn't seem to work any more, always the same IP.

I agree that if you really need a new IP you might call your ISP.  The other alternative is to buy a VPN service.
