Change IP Configuration through commands

View Your Network Information

Before you change your IP address and related information, you’ll need to find the full name of the network for the interface you want to change. To do this, type the following command:

netsh interface ipv4 show config

Scroll down until you see the interface. In our example, we’re going to modify the Wi-Fi interface, which on our machine is just named “Wi-Fi.” You’ll also see other default names that Windows assigns to interfaces, such as “Local Area Connection,” “Local Area Connection 2,” and “Ethernet.” Just find the one you’re looking for and make note of the exact name. You can also copy and paste the name to Notepad.

Change Your IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway

Set static IP

netsh interface ip set address name=”Local Area Connection” static 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.254

netsh interface ipv4 set address name="Wi-Fi" static 192.168.1.10 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1

Set dynamic IP (DHCP)

netsh interface ip set address name=”Local Area Connection” source=dhcp

Set static Prefered DNS server

netsh interface ip set dns name=”Local Area Connection” static 192.168.0.250

Set alternate DNS server

netsh interface ip add dns name=”Local Area Connection” 8.8.8.8 index=2

Set dynamic Prefered DNS server

netsh interface ip set dnsservers name=”Local Area Connection” source=dhcp

Note: Those given in blue italics must be changed with your network adapter name in network settings and ip addresses of your network/service providers.
