# How to Manage Configurable Service Options

> Learn how to modify specific parameters of your FREAKHOSTING services, such as upgrading RAM, changing OS, or adding dedicated IPs.

## Granular Resource Scaling

Beyond switching your whole hosting plan, FREAKHOSTING lets you adjust specific **Configurable Options** on an active service. This is ideal when you need a single add-on, such as an extra dedicated IP or a different location, without moving to a higher service tier.

## Modifying Specific Options

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Service">
    Go to **Services → My Services** and open the service (via the **Actions** menu → **Manage**, or by clicking its name) to reach its **Product Details** page.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open Upgrade/downgrade">
    Click **Upgrade/downgrade**, then switch to the **Configurable Options** tab.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Adjust Your Options">
    For each row, set the **New Configuration** dropdown, or leave it on **No Change**. Available options include:

    * **Location**: move your service to a different region.
    * **IP Addresses**: add extra dedicated IPs, priced per additional IP.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Continue and Pay">
    Click **Continue**, review the prorated cost, and complete checkout. Your service is updated once the invoice has been paid.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Good to Know

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Change Package vs. Configurable Options">
    The **Change Package** tab switches your entire plan tier (for example, from BVPS-2 to BVPS-3). The **Configurable Options** tab adjusts a single add-on on your *current* plan, such as adding an IP address or changing location.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Prorated costs">
    Like plan changes, configurable options are billed on a **prorated basis**: you pay for the new add-on only for the remaining days of your current billing cycle.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Reinstalling the operating system">
    Changing a VPS operating system is **not** a configurable option. You can reinstall the OS yourself from the server's control panel using **Rebuild Server** on the Product Details page.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

<Warning>
  ### Location Changes Affect Your IP

  Changing your service **Location** moves it to a different node and results in a **new IP address**. Update any saved connection details and inform your players after the change.
