How do I change my IP via terminal?

Hi, guys, I was using an online utility to check wheather or not an email existed, and they gave me three tries. I thought clearing temp and cookies would work, but it looks like they grabbed a hold of my IP. Smilie Now, I'd like to make a shell script that changes my IP. Not bad...yet. I'm using Wlan on a tablet PC that has no network jack. Thanks in advance for the help.

BTW, I'm using Fedora, so the script will have to be compatible with RedHat. Also, I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting with a 30 second pause between, and my IP still hasn't changed.
