There are several free services on the web that claim to translate an IP Address into a physical location.  They're mostly pretty bogus... often off by one state, at least, and sometimes more.\n\nYour ISP may have moved around the assignments of the IP address ranges that it "owns", and the service that does the translation hasn't figured it out yet.

Your IP address is either dynamic or fixed.  They are assigned to you by your ISP or in the case of a corporate PC, by the LAN or WAN administrator.\n\nIn the case of a fixed IP address assigned by an ISP, just ask them to change the address.  This should either be free or very low cost.  \n\nIn the case of a dynamic IP address, it can change everytime you connect but will always be within a certain range and the address will repeat themselves.

In basic terms, two computers on the same network are assigned the same IP address.

If ur internet service provider gives u static ip addresses at both end, u can connect it. If so.. u just provide routing entries in both of ur wan interfaces to the ip address of the wan interface of the other.

This is true.  Some ISPs will allow you to pay extra if you want a "static" IP address, one that does not change.   Otherwise you have a dynamic IP address and it changes every time.  Or at least it CAN change every time.  There's always the chance you will get reassigned the same address.

ISPs assign IP addresses to it's customers generally in two of fowllowing ways.\n\n1> Static Address : Static Address is permenantly assigned to you interaccount, whenever you login on the net you have same IP address which is assigned to you by your ISP\n\n2> Dynamic Address : As the term refers, there is high probability that your IP address is different everytime you log in, In this case your ISP assigns IP address "As they are available" without any preference\n\nSo answer is quite clear if you have static IP then you have to call your ISP & tell them to change your IP & obviousely this method is tracable.\n\nBut if your IP address is dynamic then it changes dynamically, but at a time there is only one unique IP on the net so if somebody wants to dig deep he can find your IP\n\n If you want to hide your IP from any particular site/application/person then you can use PROXY address while communication to it.\n\nProxy Server Tutorial : http://compnetworking.about.com/cs/proxyservers/a/proxyservers.htm\n\nProxy List : http://www.samair.ru/proxy/\n\nHope you find it helpful

Actually, years ago there were some Internet Service Providers  (ISP) that would allow Dialup users to have Static IP addresses, but it was never very common.  The main reason is that dialup users tend not to be connected to the Internet for very long, and ISPs are given a limited ammount of addresses to hand out.\n\nIf you're looking for a way to simulate a static IP with a dialup connection, look at Dynamic DNS solutions.

Well if you are sitting at the computer then entering ipconfig /all at the command prompt will tell you what you want to know.  The link below will tell you your public IP address if you are using some sort of address translation.

This depends if you are configuring a local (LAN) network or going on the Internet (WAN).  To go on the Internet, the IP address is provided by your ISP (Internet Service Provider) either on a temporary (Dynamic IP) or permanent (Static IP) basis.\nIn this case the IP address is unique in the world and (like your phone number) uniquely identifies your PC.\n\nIf you are connecting several PC's locally, you may use an IP range that is non-unique, since it will only provide access to YOUR PC's to each other. Typically, numbers in the range of 192.168.x.y (where the last 2 numbers can range from 0-255 each) are reserved for these local addresses.\n\nYou can also use a SOHO router (with NAT= Network Address Translation) to provide access for several locally addressed PC's to share a single ISP provided IP to the Internet.\n\nThese routers usually will act as a DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Program) Server to provide automatic IP assignment to the local side, while performing the NAT function to share the Internet IP on the other side of the router.\n\nA simple network between 2 pc's can be made by merely attaching a cross-over cable to the Ethernet port of 2 pc's and letting Windows assign automatic default addressing!  It will fabricate a number in the range 169.254.x.y for each machine, if no DHCP server is found at boot time, and if no manual address is assigned by default.

You have 1 connection with 1 IP address. Unfortunately you have 2 computers you want to connect. There is something that can help you. It's a router.\n\nA router will take the IP address assigned to you by your ISP and then give your computers a 192 IP automatically (or staticly if you set it up that way)\n\nYour IP address doesn't determine your internet speed. What determines your speed is the configuration file that is saved in your Cable modem/DSL/other modem device, that is what limits your speed. There are ways to modify that configuration file, however, they are most likely in violation of the TOS or TOA between you and your ISP. \n\nIf you want to upgrade your speed or even get an additional IP address you can always upgrade with your ISP. Most are more than happy to charge you additional amounts for extra services.\n\nThe cheapest in the long run is to get a router, and upgrade your service to a faster speed.

If you choose to use the DHCP to assign IP addresses then the router will only assign IP address from one subnet (ie. 192.168.1.x, or 192.168.2.x, etc.) to both wired and wireless clients.  \n\nIf you would prefer to use your router to assign addresses across multiple IP subnets, this can be accomplished by assigning all IP addresses manually.\n\nSo, the answer is yes, if you want it to. Or... No, if you don't want it to.

There are two types of IP address that your computer has, the Local IP address and its Internet IP address.\nThese are one and the same if you have a direct connection to the Internet, such as a dialup modem, or have only one computer plugged directly into some types of broadband modems.\n\nSo, since the question does not clarify which IP address you are looking for, I will answer how to find both.\n\nYour Internet IP address is how other computers on the Internet know where to find you, and how to communicate back and forth with your computer.\n\nYou can find this very simply by visiting one of the sites that the others mentioned, such as http://www.ipchicken.com\n\nMany times, if you are connected to the Internet through a corporate network or home network, you will also have a separate Local IP address (which is how your computer talks to other computers, devices, etc, on the network at the place it is actually plugged into, such as your home)\n\nIf you are running Windows 95, 98, or Millenium Edition, this can be found by clicking on the Start Menu, selecting Run, and typing "winipcfg" without the quotes, and hitting enter or clicking OK or Open.  \nAfter this is done a box will come up which will have a drop-down menu.  Select your modem or device you are connecting with, and it will show the "IP Address".\n\nIn Windows 2000 and XP, you would click Start, Run, and type "CMD" and click OK.\nA black screen will come up, with a blinking line.\nInside the black screen, you will need to type "ipconfig"\n\nThis will show your local IP address, such as the following:\n\n\nC:&#92;>ipconfig\n\nWindows IP Configuration\n\n\nEthernet adapter Local Area Connection:\n\n        Media State . . . . . . . . . . . : Media disconnected\n\n\n\nEthernet adapter Wireless Network Connection:\n\n        Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . : megapathdsl.net\n        IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.20.1.108\n        Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0\n        Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.20.1.1\n\nC:&#92;>\n\nHere, this shows that my "Local Area Connection" (which is the network jack on my computer) is unplugged, but that my wireless connection has an IP address of 10.20.1.108 \n\nDoes this answer your question?

Connect a router to your ISP, then connect your computers to the router.  The router will get an IP address from your ISP.  Set your computers to get their IP address via DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) from the router.  The router will assign non-routable IP addresses to your computers, therefore they cannot be seen on the ISP side of the router.\n\nThe router uses NAT, network address translation, to map packets to and from the ISP to the correct computer on your LAN.\n\nThis is a very standard setup.

One appears to be a complete IP address and the other is not. For the address to be complete there must be 4 numbers separated by dots (xx.xx.xx.xx).\n\nTypically, your computer uses one address to communicate with other computers within your local network (like your home or office) and shares a single address with computers outside your network (like on the Internet). This is done by your router or cable modem (assuming you're at home) by a process called network address translation (NAT).  On the router config page you often see a LAN and WAN address, with the WAN (wide-area network) address being the one for the internet connection to your service provider and the LAN (local-area network) address being the one used to connect to all of the other computers in your home or office. All of the computers in your local-area network will get addresses that are in the same "subnet" as the router.\n\nThere is no "difference" between one number and another as long as you're using an address which is valid on your network. The most important thing is that your local-area IP address is accompanied by the correct subnet mask. That's the one that usually looks something like 255.255.255.0. If you aren't sure what these mean, you need to talk to the network administrator or help desk for your internet service provider.

Tell us what command you will be used at command prompt.\n\nIf your PC's IP  is assgined by DHCP( thats like DSL modem/router or from Internet service provider),nothing will happen except Internet connection is closed during the period of "reset" activity.\n\nIf your PC's IP is assigned manually, that IP is supplied by Internet service provider,you must set same IP back to get connected to Internet, otherwise you can not reach Internet.\n\nThink about any computer conneted to this PC.\n\nHope this hepls.
