I need to figure out my static IP in order to forward some ports…

How do I figure this out?

I think you go to Run\>cmd\>ipconfig and its the “IP address” number… but I just wanna make sure that its not something else.

I also have a cable connection so I believe that I get a new one each time… but Ill just change each time I need to use a specific port
