    assuming you have Windows.

    Go to a Command Prompt

    type ipconfig /release

    this will release your ip

    If you router is setup for DHCP (auto-assign an IP address), type ipconfig /renew

    this will assign your PC a new IP.

    The IP adresses assignment is 2 fold. 1. The modem has been assigned its IP address by the ISP (your cable provider). 2. Your desktop and laptop have 2 different IP addresses. Item 1 and 2 are not similar. All IP addresses are different from your angle. For an external computer or ISP, they can view your IPaddress as only one address, the one of the modem.

    Your neighbor's router assigns an IP address using DHCP when you connect. And yes, each computer has it's own IP either from DHCP(auto assign) or static(manually assigned)
