Virgin Media IP change

mantlemma

As an avid lad who plays a fair few PC games, I register for a few game communities websites also. This one website says my IP is blocked for spamming accounts. I rang UPC to go about an IP change and they advised that I turn the modem off, unplug the coax wire and reconnect everything. That didn't work.

Then they said they'd factory reset it from their end and after 15 minutes I'd be assigned a new IP.. that didn't work. What else can I do that will actually work? My IP is dynamic but I don't think it has ever changed.

You shouldn't post duplicate threads. One is usually enough. :rolleyes:

OP have you considered not spamming?

As you can probably see from my posts, I'm new to boards. Didn't know you can post in two different threads.. no need to get salty.

Not advice, just something I found by googling.

This is not a wireless issue.
