Do all 3 of my computers in the same house use the same IP address?

    No but . . .

    Your IP address on your network is not the same as your IP address on the internet.

    My computer's IP address is 192.168.XXX.XXX but on the internet it shows up as 94.168.XXX.XXX

    So websites might read the same IP address for all of the computers in your house because the request for information that they are sending will go through the same router, which will have a single IP address as far as the internet is concerned.

    Hope this helps.

    How they might ban your IP handle could be the IP handle that your ISP(internet provider Provier) provides you your Modem. the comprehensive objective of the router is to allow diverse desktops to connect with that IP handle via sharing it to muliple desktops. What the router does basically is takes the IP handle and use's that because of the fact the "gateway to the interent" then supply's diverse IP handle to each computer that connects to the Router. So uncomplicated the respond is particular you may desire to get caught considering which you're all employing the comparable internet IP handle. Can call ISP to get multple IP handle. yet easily i think of you may desire to be effective as long as your following the guidelines of the OL sport. maximum in all threat your IP handle on your pc is DHCP meaing immediately assigned. generally those are renewed ever few hours or day's. So leaping to diverse prompt routers wont reason any themes for you.

    All 3 have different internal IP addresses, however when you connect to the internet via your router the external facing ie public IP is the same.

    Not internally, if you're using a router.

    Externally, if you have a router going through a single modem, then the external side (the side visible to the Internet) uses a single IP address. This is the address assigned to your modem by your ISP.

    No. Your wireless router will assign each one a separate address.

    If you want to see each machine's IP address, do the following:

    1) Click on Start then select "run"

    2) Enter "command" (without the quotes) in the box - this will bring up a dos window

    3) At the DOS prompt, enter "ipconfig"

    No. to find out what IP address and one of your computers are using (on a PC), go to start->run, type in "cmd" to bring up the command prompt, then type "ipconfig" (no parentheses). It should be listed as "IPv4 address."

    no, each device on a network are assigned their own IP address by your router.
