How to Change Wifi Ip Address in Windows 8

TCP/IP defines how your PC communicates with other PCs.

To make it easier to manage TCP/IP settings, we recommend using automated Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). DHCP automatically assigns Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to the computers on your network if your network supports it. If you use DHCP, then you don't have to change your TCP/IP settings if you move your PC to another location, and DHCP doesn't require you to manually configure TCP/IP settings, such as Domain Name System (DNS) and Windows Internet Name Service (WINS).

To enable DHCP or change other TCP/IP settings

  1. SelectStart, then type settings. SelectSettings >Network & internet.

  2. Do one of the following:

    • For a Wi-Fi network, selectWi-Fi >Manage known networks. Choose the network for which you want to change the settings.

    • For an Ethernet network, selectEthernet, then select the Ethernet network you're connected to.

  3. Next toIP assignment, selectEdit.

  4. UnderEdit network IP settings or Edit IP settings, selectAutomatic (DHCP) orManual.

    • To specify IPv4 settings manually

      1. UnderEdit network IP settings or Edit IP settings, chooseManual, then turn onIPv4.

      2. To specify an IP address, in theIP address, Subnet mask, andGateway boxes, type the IP address settings.

      3. To specify a DNS server address, in thePreferred DNS andAlternate DNS boxes, type the addresses of the primary and secondary DNS servers.

      4. To specify if you want to use an encrypted (DNS over HTTPS) or unencrypted connection to the DNS server you specify, for Preferred DNS encryption and Alternate DNS encryption, choose the setting you want.

    • To specify IPv6 settings manually

      1. UnderEdit network IP settings or Edit IP settings, chooseManual, then turn onIPv6.

      2. To specify an IP address, in theIP address, Subnet prefix length, andGateway boxes, type the IP address settings.

      3. To specify a DNS server address, in thePreferred DNS andAlternate DNS boxes, type the addresses of the primary and secondary DNS servers.

      4. To specify if you want to use an encrypted (DNS over HTTPS) or unencrypted connection to the DNS server you specify, for Preferred DNS encryption and Alternate DNS encryption, choose the setting you want.

    • When you selectAutomatic (DHCP), the IP address settings and DNS server address setting are set automatically by your router or other access point (recommended).

    • When you selectManual, you can manually set your IP address settings and DNS server address.

  5. When you're done, selectSave.

Note:To install IPv4, run Command Prompt as an administrator, type netsh interface ipv4 install, and then press Enter.
