How to check IP Address

Check out IP Address
1). Using command prompt :-

Here i will explain with screenshot how to check ip with command prompt.
i)Start >>>> Run >>>> cmd (press OK)

Now we have command propt open, so just type following commands.
a). ipconfig/all - This command will give detail discription about all the network adapter like their physical address (Mac address), ip address, subnet mask, default gateway.


b). ipconfig/release - This command is used to return the ip address to DHCP - Server.  What that mean's is that your ip address after the command will be IP Address: 0.0.0.0


c). ipconfig/renew - This command is used to renew the ip address. Like after 2nd command we have ip:0.0.0.0 , so when we type this command it will ask DHCP - Server for address so now the ip address will be like IP Address : 192.168.1.100 (just for example)

2). Using Network Connections :-
Here is how to check ip without command prompt, as that appear a bit technical....
i) start >>>> Control Panel >>>> Network & Internet Connections >>>> Network Connections >>>> Local Area Connection or Wireless Network Connection >>>> Right Click >>>> Status >>>> Second Tab is Support you will find ip address there.

Now Just check out ip address : -
