I found "Network & Internet",in "Setting",

Finding IP address

Hello,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below to find printer’s IP address:

1. Type Devices and Printers in the Windows search bar.
   
2. Select on the printer and click on
   Manage.
   
3. Click on the Ports tab.
   You will be able to find printer’s IP address under the ‘Ports’ tab.
   

Few printers also have a “Test print” option on the printer. When you print a test page from network printer, the page shows the IP address along with other details.

Note: If it is set on DHCP mode the IP address will constantly change.
The IP address is assigned automatically by your router using a protocol called DHCP.

Hope it helps.

IP Addressing ~ Gaming

Hi,

Based on what we know, nobody else has access to knowing which games you've played using IP addresses. To better address your query, we suggest getting in touch with your network provider as they are more knowledgeable with these kinds of concerns.

Best regards.
