A couple of options:
- Call your ISP and beg them to change your IP address.
- Log into your WNDR3400v2, go to Internet/WAN settings and change the MAC address. You can use the MAC address of one of your computers. Reboot the router and your ISP's modem. If you are lucky, your ISP will assign a new IP address.

1) I tried and they told me they couldn't do that. They said it would change on its own but they didn't know how long that would take. When I pressed that they said "it should change within a few days"
2) I'll try this and report back
Thanks for your help!

rjm123_607 Can you now access craigslist after doing the MAC Address?

No - I still cant seem to access Craigslist. As I stated I CAN access it if I bypass the router. Maybe I didnt change the MAC address properly....Thanks
