I would expect the IP to change with the new hardware.
It should be possible to get around this by just power cycling your existing router, since ADSL is usually dynamic IP. That means the IP changes every time you power down and back on.

It is foolish to ban dynamic IPs. The next person who is allocated that IP will also be banned. Locks out innocent users, and as I just explained, it will achieve nothing.
