Understood - winipcfg or IPCONFIG simply displays your network
configuration. Try IPCONFIG /? | MORE
From the info below - you have an ip address, appear to be configured
correctly - and should be doing all internet functions. Is it working or is
it not working? If not - what specifically is not working?
Your original post was about a using a specific command - not about any
problems with your wireless network. The IPCONFIG / WINIPCFG commands show
configurations for each network device, and allow you to do some additional
functions for all networking devices wired and non-wired. It does not
directly allow you to "utilize its benefits such as accessing e mail when
traveling" or "being up with the latest technology and wireless available in
your area"
Not trying to be harsh - but you asked about a command - you got an answer.
Then you run the command - but you are not sure what the info means.
People are willing to help with problems - but aside from not knowing how to
run basic network commands and not understanding the basic network commands
output - what is your wireless problem?
I would suggest you see the following URL for how to address wireless
security issues (not sure if you have a Linksys or not - but the concepts
are general):
