Well this question has 2 answers:
1) if you want to find out what is the ip that in on your PC if you are connected to a one of these (cable modem, DSL modem or router) then this is what you call a "local ip, or private IP" to check it you do this: you click Start/ run/ and you type CMD and press ENTER on the keyboard. then in the black window you type "ipconfig" (without the quotes) and you press ENTER again. here it should say, ip address (most likely it is going to start like 192.168.xxx.xxx , where xxx could be any set of numbers)
2) if you are talking about the IP address that your modem (cable or DSL) is pulling , that means that is your "public IP" and to find it out, (the wasiest way) you can go to a site like "whatismyip.com" and your public ip will be at the top of the page.
Note: in case of vista, to get the black window you click "start/(start search) and type CMD and enter"
the rest is the same.
On the desktop...
Click on START.
Click on RUN.
In the blank box after the word "OPEN", type in these 3 letters: cmd, and than hit ENTER.
A black box will appear on your screen with a blinking curser after a command line that looks something like this:
C:\Documents and Settings\Paul Simonson>
Type the following on your keyboard: ipconfig
This will bring up the IP address you are looking for.
Hello my friend, Windows XP Users: if you want to find your system IP follow this steps:
1. Click Start button on your task bar menu.
2. Click run then type "cmd or command" then press enter.
3. In the DOS environment type " ipconfig" then press enter. Wait for a few seconds and the information regarding on your IP is displayed.
Hope it help your problem
Thanks
Click on start, run.
In the box type cmd
in the black box type ipconfig
It will show you your IP, your subnet mask, and your gateway's IP.
Or, if you just want the ip address your ISP gave you, go to the website, whatismyip.com and it will tell you your computer's IP on the internet.
