Changing IP is not an end in itself - or at least it shouldn't be.

What are you trying to accomplish? To whom do you wish your IP to appear
different? Or, as is more likely, do you merely wish to prevent an
association between a particualr IP traceable to you and particular net
activities?

Yes, there are ways - with some ISPs - to get them to assign a new IP by
pulling various tricks. But before beating your brains out trying to push
on a string (since assigning an IP is ultimately up to your ISP, not you)
ask your self what you are really trying to do.
