My IP address disappeared after the Norton tech tried to fixed my antivirus. Now he says I have to have that fixed (which it worked before he came online) before the virus protector can be fixed. So, how do I restore my IP address.

If you get a new ip address each time you connect to the internet that means you are having a dynamic ip address, so you can easily reset it by just switching off you DSL modem or disconnecting the dialup internet and then reconnect the internet or restart you DSL modem. So you will get a new ip address. But if your ISP have provided you a static ip address then it is not possible for you to reset it.

I hope you get the answer of your question

Why do you need to reset a modem if you hook up a different computer to it?

You must reset a modem each time you take away or add a piece of equipment to it, because it needs to pick up an IP address with whatever you are hooking it up to. That IP address helps those pieces of equipment communicate with one another. If you were to add a router or another PC to a modem that had not been reset and still had the old settings from a different machine, it wouldn't allow you to connect. Those devices have to be in sync with one another.
