344307 2005-04-13 02:43:00 Where do I find the IP address of my PC?! My ISP said to look at the network connection on the tool bar but it is not showing there. XP Pro.
Many thanks

344308 2005-04-13 02:49:00 Depends if they mean the dialup one or the LAN. If u have both, both should appear in the taskbar. 2 flashing monitors.

If theyre on the taskbar, click on one of them ie: the dialup, then the details tab, there's your ip address.

Or if theyre not on the taskbar, go to my network places / view network connections and right mouse button on either / properties, and tick show icon in notification area when connected and the 1 under it. Then OK.

Start > Settings (or whatever it is in XP) Network & Dialup Connections > If ADSL/LAN, right click the Local Area Connection > Properties and in the resulting box highlight Netwrk Adapter TCP/IP or, Internet Protocol TCP/IP (as long as TCP/IP is there, should be obvious) click the Properties button and youll find your adapters IP address in the top field. (Can also get there via Control Panel > Network & Dialup Connections)

If you have the two little computer icons in your system tray, left click, click Properties button in the resulting box and Bob's your uncle.

If you don't have it you'll need to create a new connection based on your netwrk adapter.

ipconfig /all


Chill.

344312 2005-04-13 03:53:00 Hey thanks guys - the Ipconfig one gave it all. Bit scary going back into that DOS sorta stuff - takes me back to the early 80’s and hanging onto the phone and a certain programmer trying to kick some life back into one of his **lls ups!! stuffed (1469)
344313 2005-04-13 06:50:00 For < Windows Xp users, they might want to determine their IP by typing "winipcfg" in the run command (without the quotation mark). Cheers :) Renmoo (66)
