If you use another DNS to query the domain, you will get a different IP: 216.58.218.196 from http://mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx?action=a%3awww.google.com&run=toolpage 74.125.22.103 from https://www.ultratools.com/tools/dnsLookupResult 216.58.209.68 from http://ping.eu/nslookup/ If you are dead set on using a different IP than your local one, you can use this trick to do this.
