I'm trying to set up a wireless connection and need to find my IP address.?

Is there an easy way to find this, on my computer, or should I just call my ISP? thanks

Update:

Thanks to all for your help, much appreciated. Janine gave me the easiest method and it did the trick.

Now I can get my Netflix movies on my TV.Thanks Janine.

    I think i know what your talking about. If you own the wireless router the isp address should be on the back of the router box. If not then double click on your Internet and click on wireless then there should be a button that says support or properties or if you are getting a connection double click on the wireless icon and there should be a button that says properties or Support the isp address should be listed. I hope I have been helpful.

    you got two ip address. one is local which you will get if you have a router attached. your local ip you can usually find by going to

    start -> run and typing "ipconfig /all"

    for you external ip address provided by your ISP you can find that by going to the website mentioned above.
