The ip between router and ISP will change each time you boot the router usually but not always- most ISP's use dynamic allocation. Some ISPs renew the ip every few days also, or the router can be told to.

The IP that the router allocates the PC when it appears on the network depends on the settings of the router when you are using DHCP, but there is nothing to stop you specifying a fixed ip, or within a certain range.

Why are you asking?

why what have you done ??? lol

im sure someone here can keep an eye on yours to see if it visibly changes

....by using a proxy server.

See http://anonymouse.org/ for example

if you change your IP and make a new username make sure you don't use your proper username with that ip, As alot of forums have a search to see if any users have posted from the same IP.
