IP Address

Hi Will,

You might need your computer's IP address if you want to set up an Internet connection, allow other people to connect to your PC, or need to troubleshoot network problems. Kindly follow these steps to find the IP address of your computer:

• Select the Start button , start typing View network connections, and then select it in the list.
• Select an active network connection, and then, in the toolbar, select
  View status of this connection. (You might need to select the chevron icon to find this command.)
• Select Details. (Your PC's IP address appears in the
  Value column, next to IPv4 Address).

Let us know whenever you need further assistance.

 

Delete "preferred" IP address -Windows 10

Desktop PC running Win 10 Pro 21H2, fully up-to-date. PC's Ethernet port is directly connected to a FiOS Ethernet jack on the wall without a router or modem.

Strange Ethernet problems started recently that may be linked to this PC's "preferred" IP address, which is listed by ipconfig /all. I have done full scans with Windows Defender, Malwarebytes, and SuperAntiSpyware but nothing was found.

The problem totally disappears if I switch this PC to using WiFi via a router that's connected to a different Ethernet port in another room and with a different, independent IP address. So that suggests the Ethernet's IP address is the problem. For my work from home setup, I need to use Ethernet all the time, not WiFi.

Because of its "preferred" status, Ethernet requests and always receives the same IP address from the ISP at every boot. If I use ipconfig /release and /renew, it just renews the license on the same "preferred" IP address.

I tried some of the suggestions here, including:

a. Open Command Prompt as administrator

b. netsh winsock reset catalog
c. netsh int ip reset reset.log

d. Reboot

When I check the Ethernet config after the reboot, it's set to use a dynamic IP and is connected to the same (preferred) IP address, so the problems continue.

I'm not in an IT setting so I can't manually assign the "preferred" IP to another PC which should make this one get a different IP, so none of those suggestions at that link will work for me.

The "preferred" IP address is listed twice in various Windows registry keys. So that may be why it's used as the "preferred" IP. Will deleting those keys or just deleting the IP address shown in those keys help or just make things worse?

If I uninstall the (onboard) Ethernet adapter in Device Manager and then reinstall it, would that force it to get a new IP address?

Contacted my (useless) ISP who said it's my problem because my PC is requesting its "preferred" IP address and they're just doing what it wants. I asked them to (temporarily) block requests for that IP address so this PC can get a new one but they won't/can't do that.

Any suggestions?

Thanks for reading!
