What do you mean "network address"? If you mean users internet address (IP address) than you will not be able to get it directly, some messengers will show you, your interlocutor's IP address in properties menu. But if you want to get other user's IP, he should: connect to your PC or visit any web page which will check and logs his IP (when you are browsing any web page they are logging your IP address, when did you come and what page did you open )
To find the network address for your computer, first open up the start menu located in the bottom left with a Microsoft logo, then in the search bar type 'cmd' and open up that up then in cmd type 'ipconfig' and you will given your network address.
One computer on a network will drop another if both computers are using the same IP Address. This can be solved by assigning both computers automatic IP address, and Windows will automatically deal with the network issue.
internet provider Its actually internet protocol. Every computer on the network has to have its own address, this address is called the IP address. Though since you asked what is IP. IP is just a protocol.
One can change the DNS server settings on their computer by right clicking on "My Network Places" button on their computer. After that, one must click on properties. Once there, find the network associated with your internet connection and and right click to change the IP address.
It is unclear what you mean by 'original address'. If you mean the "Real" IP address for the "Internet" then one place would be on the Router under "Status" or something similar, or on the network settings on the computer on a Windows machine, not sure if you can find it on a Mac with out the console.
There is no My Network Places website. My Network Places is a folder within your computer system where people can find the different Network connections to the computer.
Yes, all devices on a network must have a unique IP address or you will have an IP conflict and one of the devices will have its network connection disabled.
This would depend on the type of computer you are using but assuming you are using windows 7 then follow these steps. Open Network Connections select an active network and click View status of this connection. Then your IP address will be listed on the Details page under the Value column.
Every piece of equipment (computers, printers etc.) has a MAC (Media Access Control) address which identifies it when it is connected to a network. To spoof the MAC address is to supply the network with a different address than the one allocated for your computer so you are pretending to be another computer.
The message must travel from your computer to your router. Every computer connected to a network has a network interface card (NIC) with a unique physical address, called a MAC address (for Media Access Control). At the data link level, two more headers are added, one for your computer's NIC address (the source MAC) and one for your router's NIC address. A data link layer structure with destination MAC, source MAC, and data is called a frame. Every NIC selects from the network those frames with its own address as a destination address. The data link layer adds the structure necessary for data to get from your computer to another computer (a router is just a dedicated computer) on your network. Data Link Layer Transformation.
Please clarify your question as its too vague. No one would want 2 network cards installed in 1 computer.
An IP (Internet Protocol) address is an address assigned to each and every computer that joins a network. The IP address version most people are familiar with is IPv4, which contains 4 octets, or series of numbers. (like 127.0.0.1 [localhost] for example). When you connect a computer to the Internet, your computer will be assigned two IP addresses - one for your local network [LAN/local area network] (so you can communicate with other people in the same room, house, or building), and one for the Internet [WAN/wide area network]. Under certain regulations, a certain "octet" in the IPv4 address is associated with a certain physical global region (excluding restricted special addresses like 0.0.0.0, 255.255.255.x, 127.0.0.1, and so on). This means that by obtaining the IP address, one can approximate the location of the computer of the IP address holder (or their ISP).
No, an IP address is given to each internet provider, not each computer. For example, there could be five computers hooked up to the same network in which case they'd all have the same IP address.
