Quick overview:
If you need to know your own IP and some additional information for the Internet or your network, a simple DOS command is sufficient.
1. Click one after the other on Start > Execute and type in the command line cmd and confirm with ENTER. The good old DOS interface appears.
2. Now write the command ipconfig /all and press Enter. Detailed information about the connection will now appear.
NOTE FOR NEW PUBLICATION: This article was produced by Sandro Villinger and comes from the Windows Tweaks archive, which has been built up since the late 1990s.
Founded Windows Tweaks as a teenager in the 90s. His helpful PC tricks made it Germany's most visited Windows site (back then this is what Sandro looked like). He then went on to write elsewhere, such as for PC-Praxis, Computer Bild and PCWorld in the USA. Microsoft also poached him from us. Now Sandro is back, finally sharing his tweaks here again. For a stress-free digital everyday life. You can reach Sandro via e-mail.
