I know i can go to run (start, run)
and type in something to get my IP #
My g/f has a PC game, and I have it also, we need the IP # to play it w/ the other person, ANy ideas?
goto run, in the box type "CMD" and press enter, this will bring up a terminal window (dos prompt for you non *nix users), and type IPCONFIG.... this will tell you your current IP.
IPCONFIG , will give you your internal IP address , if your on an ADSL ,BB, cable , connection , the *real* ip address will be different to the internal one as your router will dish out an internal address to your computer .
You could go into your router to find the external address .
Or..
To find your external IP address go here http://www.whatismyip.com/
This will give you your external address as given by your ISP .
An internal IP addie as shown by IPCONFIG is useless as it's a non routable address on the internet , so you need the external one .

Hope you can follow that :-)
That is true if you are using a router or some other type of proxy/NAT appliance. If you are just using a cable/DSL modem, you can get your IP via the IPCONFIG command in windoze, or ifconfig command in linux/unix/mac(?).
