to the people who said i should obey the admin rules, etc. Ive been gaming for about 10 years over the internet and I'm a legit player. I've always respected the rules of the server...unless its a bogus server, then i just leave..always been like that. and yes i get banned all the time for basically just being too good sometimes, whoop dee do. all i ask is that you think before you type..not trying to start anything. go about your business and i will mine.... anyways, back to the situation.. even though the router gave me an ip for the laptop, there is no way i can change it? i don't believe that, considering i've gone through different IPs with the router. (not talking about my actual modem). another thing- even if i did change the ip on the laptop, would i still be banned(asking if it actually reads from the actual modem ip and not the router ip) thanks
