## How to change your IP address

### Free IP change (within 24 hours)

You’re eligible for one **free IP change** if requested within the first 24 hours of your VPS purchase.

**Steps:**

1. Log in to your EDIS Global [dashboard](https://manage.edisglobal.com/clientarea.php).
2. Navigate to **Services** and locate your VPS.
3. Click the ♻️ recycle icon next to your current IP to request the change.

> **Note:** After the IP change, you will need to **reinstall your system or manually configure** the new IP using VNC. Once the new IP is activated, your old IP stops working immediately.

> **Please note:** The free IP change applies only to your primary IPv4 address. If you need to change any additional IPv4 addresses, you can do so using our paid **Standard** or **Bespoke IP Change** services.

## IP change after 24 hours (paid options)

If more than 24 hours have passed, IP changes incur a fee. You have two options:

| Option                 | Price   | Description                                                       |
| ---------------------- | ------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Standard IP Change** | **€5**  | A new IP is automatically assigned (random subnet; no selection). |
| **Bespoke IP Change**  | **€10** | You choose an IP from a provided list of available addresses.     |

### Standard IP change

After payment, the system assigns a random IP from a /24 subnet. You cannot influence the subnet selection.

> **Note:** “Random” means you cannot pick the subnet or guarantee its prefix.

<CtaButton label="Order Standard IP Change" link="https://manage.edisglobal.com/cart.php?gid=addons" />

### Bespoke IP change

You will receive a list of available IPs (from varying prefixes) and can choose one.

> **Note:** If you previously had an IP and it’s still unassigned, you may see it in this list.

## Configure new IP after change (for ALL cases)

> **Important:** Once the new IP is assigned, the **old IP immediately stops working**. You must activate the new IP by either:
>
> • **Reinstalling your VPS**, or • **Manually configuring** it using VNC

<CtaButton label="(Re-) Install Linux/Windows" link="../../vps-management/autoinstall-reinstall-install-vps-linux-windows" />

<CtaButton label="Enable VNC server" link="../../vps-management/enable-vnc-server" />

***

## Summary & Recommendations

* If within 24 hours → use the **free IP change**.
* After 24 hours → choose **Standard** or **Bespoke**.
* **Always** follow up by reinstalling or configuring your new IP (see above).
