trying to help my bud with road runner.
They changed his IP.
I have DSL and find my IP under winipcfg but for cable users I dont see it there

If he's using Win98 or Me it should be right where your looking. If it's Win 2000 try ipconfig in the run box. ;)

Yea last time I visited him I could not find it there . I had to locate it via Leak test.
I belive all he has is his nic and ppp IP's.
Thanks

Well

I typed in winipcfg
and I see my IP addy. Well, no one can access my server. I am not sure why. It was working fine until Roadrunner all of a sudden changed my IP addy. I beleive that this is expected with the Cable modems

Any ideas how to get it working??

Thanks John
