One way to do this is to set up a personal Virtual Private Network (VPN). With a VPN, your online requests are routed through a vast network of computers, and you use a temporary VPN to communicate online. A hacker would not see your true IP address and wouldn’t be able to connect to your computer.
How to let websites and IPS bypass the VPN?

How can hackers gain access to your IP address?
Hackers can gain access to your IP address through instant messaging apps like Skype. Don’t accept calls or IMs from people you don’t know.
