Hello,
I use SBC dynamic IP DSL and I use linksys router to connect.
1. I would like to know how I can find my current IP address.
2. How often my IP changes, is it possible my IP changes without reboot.

Connect to the Linksys router through a browser using whatever IP address the documentation tells you to use. The Setup screen should tell you what your IP address is. As far as how often it changes that is a question you will have to ask your provider. Most DSL connections are "sticky" IP rather than "static" IP, meaning they do change weekly or so. They should be able to tell you though.

Hum.. IPCONFIG /ALL gives me the DCHP assigned IP address from my router, and even the DNS Servers, but it does not give me my IP address assigned by my ISP.
My ISP will not give me any information on how often or when the dynamic IP address is changed. Stayed the same for months, then changed after taking modem off line for several days.
