If you are running Windows XP, click Start, Run..., and type in cmd in the dialog box that appears. This will open a DOS session. Type ipconfig at the command prompt that appears on the screen and press
Now, if you have a router between you and and your cable or DSL connection, then the IP address you see is what the router is assigning to your computer. The outside world cannot see that address - they see the address your service provider has assigned to your router.

Open a DOS window (also called Command Prompt), usually under Accessories on the Start menu, and type:
ipconfig /all
This will show you all the network connections you have, and the IP address assigned to each.

Go to Your Command Prompt by doing the following:
1. Go to the start menu
2. Go to all programs
3. Go to accessories
4. Than click on the Command Prompt Icon
Once you have the command prompt window up, type in "ipconfig", and it will give you your IP address.

Ok, you've gotten 2 main answers - go to whatsmyip.com and use ipconfig. If you're on a LAN/access the internet through a router, you'll notice these numbers are different. The one shown in ipconfig is your address to other computers on the network, while the one shown on whatsmyip is your router's address (your address to computers on the outside/the internet).
Hope this helps!

click on start,settings, network connections and then right click on the network connection you are using. Then click on "status", At the top you should see a tab with "general" and "support", click on support. You should see your IP addy, subnet mask and your default gateway.
