How Do I Find Out the IP Address of a Server I am Connected To?
Ok, so I connect to an online game, and I want to ping that server to check latency and packet loss etc...but I don't know the IP address. Is there a way I can find out that IP from my end by running some command from the ms-dos prompt or some other process? Btw, I don't mean MY IP address, I know that already, hehe, I want the one I'm connected to.

Yes. Try the command netstat from a command prompt. It will show all active connections. If you look like at the ports and domain names you should be able to zero in on the server ip. For example you might see a domain name with msn in it so you know that is msn and now the server. You might see you are connected to port 80 which is reserved for web servers so that probably isn't it.
