What is My IP Address?

There are times you will be asked for your IP address; primarily by a computer tech or for connecting with remote control software.

Here is your Internet IP address:

If you are using a router, you might need your local IP address. To get that, click on "Start" and then "Run." Type in "cmd" and click "ok." Now just type in "ipconfig" and press "Enter." You'll see a few lines of information. One of those is the local IP address of your computer.

If you aren't sure if you are using a router, compare the two. If they aren't the same, you do have a router.
