how can i mask my IP address on my ipad on school wifi?

[Nick]

our school uses lightspeed systems to block the websites (like twitter and so on) i have a password for the unblocked server but dont know how much they watch it and if i get caught dont want my ipads IP address popping up. i thought about a VPN on it but im not sure how it works please help.

There's really no need for a VPN considering it costs money for a good one. Just do it, change your iPads name before you do it.

You can't. They watch it.

Don't mask your IP address. On school wifi it has no meaning, and probably changes every day. What you should mask is your MAC address (which is individual to your device, where IP address isn't). Actually, spoof it (set up a fake MAC), rather than mask it (hide it, showing a blank MAC). Spoofed is harder to block than a masked one. If you can find out the MAC address for a device owned by a school employee (the Head perhaps), that would be "interesting".

Don't forget to unspoof your MAC (show the real MAC address) whenever you are doing something legit, so that the school can see that the "unknown bad person" has a MAC that is different from yours.

Secure the webpage! In the URL, where it says 'http://' add an 'S'. For example, https://www.twitter.com.

Good luck!

Really masking ur ip is a waste of time. There are easier ways to identify a computer or device.
