The quick method (limited configuration):
-
Load a Command Prompt (a DOS box) (start/programs/Command Prompt)
-
If using windows '95 or Windows '98 enter
winipcfg - this will display your IP address, subnet mask and default gateway (local router)
-
If using Windows NT enter
ipconfig - this will display your IP address, subnet mask and default gateway (local router)
The long method (full configuration) - Windows '95, '98 and NT 4.x, Windows 2K:
-
Click start\\settings\\control panel
-
Double click 'Network'
