Thanks guys figured it out... kind of...
So... it turns out the guy who emailed me wasn't a total idiot, but he didn't explain it so I thought he was.
After an extensive search and read from google I found out A LOT of people have this issue despite having dynamic IP, most people blamed it on Windows 7...
I tried every "solution" (except the ones about turning Computer/router off) I could find on google and just when I had given up, I checked my IP one last time and it had changed.
I think the issue was with the router since even if I manually changed my IPv4 IP settings, nothing happened.
As for the reason, it's more of a "if others can, I want to be able to" AND also as a protective measure.
By changing my IP every so often, people who previously had access to my IP, now have access to an IP which no longer is in use... by me...
