    Router specific configuration will vary. Have you tried setting up your router in bridge mode? That should work, I guess.

    Right click on wifi --> properties -->General --> Internet Protocol(TCP/IP).
    Is it set as "Obtain an IP Address Automatically".
    open command prompt.
    run ipconfig /all
    set the IP address and DNS servers as given.
    From IP address XXX.XXX.XXX.ZZZ , set any of your ZZZ high like 50+ otherwise if lots of devices connected to your router and after that you will connect to it you may face IP address conflict.

    Hope you are looking for this only😀

    Are you trying to access your PC from the outside world? Is that why you need to know the address?

    I'm not sure what you're doing, so I don't know if it's relevant, but this URL returns your external IP address, and no extra text or formating: #-Link-Snipped-#

    If you are running Linux (you didn't say which OS you're using) and you have write access to any website, you can create a script and run it often with cron to copy your IP address to a small text file on your site, something like this:
    #/bin/sh
curl -s https://queryip.net/ip/ | ssh mysite.example.com 'cat > public_html/ip.txt'
    Then, from anywhere in the world, you can get your home IP address like this:
    IP="$(curl -s https://mysite.example.com/ip.txt)"
    Alternately, you can use your home's URL. Most ISPs assign boring URLs to each and every IP address they have. You can get it almost the same way: #-Link-Snipped-#
