[Netflix] How to Change My IP Address on a Public Network?


When using your mobile data:


Enable Airplane Mode:


  • Enable Airplane Mode:


Activating airplane mode on your device temporarily disconnects all wireless connections, including mobile data.


  • Wait a few seconds:


Allow the device to completely disconnect from the network.


  • Disable Airplane Mode:


Turning airplane mode off will reconnect your device to the nearest cellular tower, which might result in a change of your public IP address.


When using public Wi-Fi:


Switch to a different public Wi-Fi or use a VPN:


  • Switch to another public Wi-Fi network:


If available, try connecting to another public Wi-Fi. This usually provides a different IP address.


  • Use a VPN service:


Install and use a reliable VPN service to effectively change your IP address and enhance network security. VPNs route your internet traffic through their servers, providing you with an IP address from a different geographical location.


  • Use mobile data:


If the public Wi-Fi network is unreliable or insecure, you can turn off Wi-Fi and use your mobile data instead. This usually provides a different IP address than Wi-Fi.
