Wow, thanks for all the replies! Didn’t realize there was so much to unpack with what does an ip look like. The IPv4 vs. IPv6 thing makes way more sense now.
I tried checking my IP on ipinfo.io, and it worked like a charm. Also, the `ipconfig` trick was super helpful—saw my router’s local IP right away.
One follow-up: Why do some sites still use IPv4 if IPv6 is "better"? Just curious!
—Confused but *less* curious now
