How to Find Your Internet IP Address

IP stands for internet protocol. Every device that is connected to the internet has a unique identification number, which is the IP address. There are several tools and websites that can assist you in finding your IP address. You don’t need to use any web site or third-party application to find your IP address. Instead, you can simply use the command line on your computer to display the IP address.

1.Power on your computer and click “Start” and then “Run.” This opens the run box where you can enter a command.

2.Type in “CMD” into the run box and press “Enter” on your keyboard. The command line window opens.
 
3.Type in “IP Config” into the command line and press “Enter” on your keyboard.
 
4.View and write down your IP address. The IP address will be displayed and labeled as “IP Address” or “IPv6 Address.” A sample IP address might look like “191.41.2.1.”
