How to Find the IP address of a Website or Game Server

Sometimes you may need to find out some information of a Website, or maybe you just want to find an IP address, or ping a game server..etc.

Step 1 First you will need to open up the "Command Promp". this can be done by going to the start menu in the bottom left hand corner. Then you click on the "Run" option. If you do not see the "Run" option you can summon it by holding down the "Windows" key on your keyboard, and tapping the "R" key once.

Step 2 Once you have the "Run" menu open, enter "CMD" into the run box without the quotation marks, an click "OK". Now that you have the "Command Prompt" box open you can use the built-in "Ping" tool.

Step 3 Find the website or game server which you would like to find the IP address for and type this into the command prompt box without the quotation marks - "ping webaddress.com". For example, if I wanted to get the IP address of a server at Google, I would do "ping google.com". And the ping tool will show you the IP address once it's done sending a packet to Googles server.
