The dhcp ip range is 192.168.0.255/24. I wanted my computer to get multiple ip addresses from this dhcp. So I can have multiple connections through different ip addresses with just a single computer!
is there anyway to do that?
Edit1:
In Windows or Unix, doesn't matter!
Suppose that I want to download a file. The very simple thing that a downloader does is to split the file to some parts and download them simultaneously! so that it should connect to the file server through many connections (1 connection for each part). Here, I want the downloader to establish each connection with a different IP address!
Actually, the server has limited the download speed for IP addresses. So, this way I will bypass this download limit!
Superuser.com or serverfault.com would likley give you better suggestions. – None – 2013-01-23T07:11:40.603
You really need to state what OS you want to do this with – Journeyman Geek – 2013-01-23T09:35:36.063
Why do you want to do that? In Linux you can assign several IP addresses to the same network interface, but I doubt you can convince DHCP to hand them out... – vonbrand – 2013-01-23T18:05:57.093
What do you mean that you want "multiple connections"? – cpast – 2013-01-24T13:33:51.213
That won't help your speed. The number one method of speeding up a download is to pay your ISP for a faster connection/go somewhere that has a faster connection. – BenjiWiebe – 2013-02-04T22:47:33.190
Typically web browsers defaults (and almost every other application) to the default IP address/network interface. Having multiple IP address won't do you any good unless you have applications that you can select what IP address it uses.
In your case you might want a virtual machine, possibly used with a proxy that would show externally as you having a diff. IP. – Usta – 2013-02-13T02:17:50.553
