How to Find Your Computer IP Address (Windows)

Finding a computer IP address may be extremely easy for many of us, but not necessarily to everyone out there.

1) Go to the Start menu, go to Run, and type "CMD" in the dialog box (without the quotes.)

2) Now you should see a dark (DOS) window that looks just like the picture on the left of this article step.

Without the quotes, type "IPCONFIG" and press ENTER.

3) Now you should see some network information, along with the IP ADDRESS of your computer listed.

Tips & Warnings

· If performing the IPCONFIG command gives you the following error: "'ipconfig is not recognized as an internal or external command" you may need to approach a slightly different method: - From the C: drive in DOS, type CD\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 - Try the IPCONFIG command from this location again
