Windows 10: Hi All, wifi and ethernet ip

Good day to all,

i'm just new here and i'm just a newbie in network administration.

i have this question on our network.

when i connect to one of our access point, it did give me an IP address..

Wifi IP - 10.0.36.65(Preferred)

while if i connect to an ethernet lan, it did give me an IP address..

Lan IP - 192.168.42.166


"My question is why do i get different IP address from our Wifi IP and Lan IP..."

sorry for the question i just want to understand why won't it give me a same IP address..

Thank you for all the guys that will answer my question..

:)

 

Hi All, wifi and ethernet ip

Your PC is set up to get its IP address from a DHCP server which allocates an IP address from a pool of available addresses. The Wifi access point and your LAN each has its own DHCP server, and each uses a different range of IP addresses.

Unidentified Network/valid IP configuration: both Ethernet and WiFi


I have this problem everywhere, not just at home. Though at home I have access to connect directly or with the Ethernet, which doesn't seem to change the issue at all. Specifically, we've tried assigning IP addresses manually already.

If I didn't understand your suggestion though, just let me know what steps I need to do.
