How To Change Your IP Address via the Command Prompt
Firstly, open the command prompt as administrator:
- Press the Windows key on your keyboard or click Start to bring up the boot menu.
- In the search bar, type "cmd".
- Instead of validating the search, press CTRL + SHIFT + Enter.
To change IP and default gateway
netsh int ip set address "local area connection" static 192.168.0.101 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.254 1
To change DNS:
netsh int ip set dns "local area connection" static 192.168.0.254 primary
This procedure will work, based on the following:
- The network adapter you're trying to change the IP for named "local area connection". It could also be named as "local area connection 2" or "wireless network connection".
- Look in your control panel for the correct name
- The IP you want to set is 192.168.0.101, change this to whatever IP you want to use.
- The default gateway and DNS are the same as the IP. Change this to match your network config found with the command ipconfig /all
