How is it that my IP # keeps changing

How is it that my IP # keeps changing when on Telus.

 

So far it has changed at least 8 times over the past few days and is not staying on Telus servers but rather it hits

a Fastly server or a Akamai Technologies, Inc. server and occasionally it will revert to a Telus server. 

 

I will mention that I do use 1.1.1.1.  and 1.0.0.1.

off of Cloudfare but iwhy would t

Telus kick it over to the two above mentioned servers

    Additionally, are you using a browser with a built in VPN? Since you are using Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1, are you using the Warp feature from it? That will give you different IPs also as it's like a VPN.

  • Are you asking about your assigned external IP address or the DNS server address? Those are very different things.
