My daughter has a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian. A while back I used some tutorial I found to set a static IP for her because she was having internet problems. Recently we changed up our home network, and we have a different subnet.

How do I get rid of the static IP? I have a lot of android & windows experience but for anything Linux related I need every step spelled out for me.

This is one of the reasons for NOT setting static IP addesses.

You have not told us which version of Raspbian, but it is probably Jessie.

There are 2 common methods of setting static IP addess, they are described in How do I set up networking/WiFi/Static IP

If you reverse the process you should be able to restore normal operation.

It is likely you modified /etc/network/interfaces, and the default contents for Jessie and Stretch are listed in the link.
