Mechanize you different ip

I'm playing around with mechanize on a website that appears differently based on your ip.

Is there a way to change you ip in mechanize?

I've tried:

br.set_proxies({"http": '127.0.0.1:80'})

but that timesout. Is there something else I'm supposed to do to make this work?

You can use tor with menchanize it will allowed you tu use different IP and anonymous.

import socks
import socket


def create_connection(address, timeout=None, source_address=None):
    sock = socks.socksocket()
    sock.connect(address)
    return sock

And This code before create the browser of mechanize

socks.setdefaultproxy(socks.PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS5, "127.0.0.1", 9050)

socket.socket = socks.socksocket
socket.create_connection = create_connection

no, I do not believe this is possible. IP address is set on outgoing packets by your network stack, outside of mechanize's control.
