I am on port 2 and I was on port 1. WHY?
I am looking for my IP address and am trying to change my ports.
How do I do this?
Thanks

How can I find my IP address?
Click on %26quot;Start%26quot; in the bottom left hand corner of screen
Click on %26quot;Run%26quot;.
Type in %26quot;command%26quot; and hit ok.
You should now be at an MSDOS prompt screen.
Type %26quot;ipconfig /release%26quot; just like that, and hit %26quot;enter%26quot;
Type %26quot;exit%26quot; and leave the prompt
Right-click on %26quot;Network Places%26quot; or %26quot;My Network Places%26quot; on your desktop.
Click on %26quot;properties%26quot;
You should now be on a screen with something titled %26quot;Local Area Connection%26quot;, or something close to that, and, if you have a network hooked up, all of your other networks.
Right-click on %26quot;Local Area Connection%26quot; and click %26quot;properties%26quot;
Double-click on the %26quot;Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)%26quot; from the list under the %26quot;General%26quot; tab
Click on %26quot;Use the following IP address%26quot; under the %26quot;General%26quot; tab
Create an IP address (It doesn't matter what it is. I just type 1 and 2 # until i fill the area up).
Press %26quot;Tab%26quot; and it should automatically fill in the %26quot;Subnet Mask%26quot; section with default numbers.
Hit the %26quot;Ok%26quot; button here
Hit the %26quot;Ok%26quot; button again
You should now be back to the %26quot;Local Area Connection%26quot; screen.
Right-click back on %26quot;Local Area Connection%26quot; and go to properties again.
Go back to the %26quot;TCP/IP%26quot; settings
This time, select %26quot;Obtain an IP address automatically%26quot;
Hit %26quot;Ok%26quot;
Hit %26quot;Ok%26quot; again
You now have a new IP address
With a little practice, you can easily get this process down to 15 seconds. (in windows vista the %26quot;My network places%26quot; has been renamed to %26quot;Network and sharing center%26quot; which can be accessed in the Control panel)

If your looking for it on PC do the following
Start%26gt;settings%26gt;control Panel%26gt;network connections%26gt;right click on your network%26gt;Properties%26gt;Under the General Tab, click %26quot;Internet Protocal (TCP/IP) then properties.
This may differ slighty depending on OS
I can help you with part of your ?. to find your IP; send yourself an e-mail,go to incoming mail %26amp; right click your name on the mail you sent to yourself,then click properties, then details. there you will find all info about that mail incl. IP#. As far as port 1 %26amp; port 2 I'm not really sure what you are looking for.
Hi AT
There are two ways of finding the IP address of your computer.
The first uses the ipconfig command and the second requires that you
looks at the TPC/IP settings.
To find the IP address on a windows computer using ipconfig, open a
command line (dos prompt) and type the command ipconfig at the prompt.
Abox will appear showing the IP address, subnet mask , and default
gateway
To examine the TCP/IP settings
On windows 2000- Go to start menu%26gt;settings%26gt;network and dial up
connections and right click your connection and select properties.
Select TCP/IP in the window and select properties and you see a box
giving you the ip address and subnet mask
Windows xp is simular
