How do I change my IP address?
I have recently been banned from a Proboards forum for playing a prank on them. I would like to get back on and apologize and explain, but I cannot access the website at all due to my ban. I think they are banning me based on my ip address. I have a road runner modem and a router and desktop connected to the modem. I have tried getting on on my ipod touch (which uses the router signal), my laptop (which uses the router signal), and my desktop. I see that they all now have the same ip address.
How do I change it without damaging any of my devices?
Much help needed.

You need VPN service. I recommend Overplay.
If you use a Virtual Private Network (VPN) you can simply change your ip address between 30+ countries. http://www.flashrouters.com/overplay
Additionally you could purchase a router from FlashRouters.com where they will set the router up so that anything connecting to that router's network will tunnel through a VPN- including your iPhone, iPad....

sorry, you cant change your Ip address unless (i don't guarantee this will work) but you could try goin over to a friends house and connecting over there, the adress might change. you cant change it at your house because it is your Internet Protocol address! you need that for the internet to realize hey "bob" is online.. its not like you have more than one
