Auto-change IP via DCOM/mobile network in RunMacro

What it does

The DCOM / Change IP command controls a cellular or dialup network to change IP, connect, disconnect, or check the Internet. After changing IP it can verify with a ping/public IP and branch IF/ELSE.

When to use it

  • Rotate IP between sessions to avoid IP limits.
  • Check the Internet before continuing.
  • Reconnect the network after a drop.

Configuration steps

  1. Add a Network › DCOM / Change IP command.
  2. Choose the network name and type (cellular/dialup).
  3. Choose the action: Change IP / Connect / Disconnect / Check Internet.
  4. (Optional) set retries, delay, and IF/ELSE labels. Save.

Every option explained

Network name + Type (cellular/dialup)

The network to control and its connection type.

Action

Change IP (disconnect then reconnect), Connect, Disconnect, or Check Internet.

Retries + delay between tries

Retries until success. For Change IP: 0 means retry until it works.

IF label / ELSE label

On success jump to IF; on failure jump to ELSE.

Real example

Example: change IP before continuing

  1. DCOM / Change IP, pick the cellular network, action Change IP.
  2. IF label = new_ip for the next steps.
  3. ELSE = retry to handle failure.

Tips & common mistakes

It uses Windows netsh/rasdial — you need a configured DCOM/mobile network device.
