This question is very vague. I'll try to answer it in a variety of ways. If you tried to take another computer's IP address you would have a conflict and both machines would not be able to access the internet. If you are trying to acess any netowrk without the network provider's consent then that would be considered illegal. Companies would have policies that would not allow you to perform any network configuration and if you violate that policy you are subject to their punishment.
