What Does an IP Address Look Like? A Simple Breakdown or Can Someone Explain What an IP Address Looks

Wow, thanks everyone! This totally clears up what does an ip address look like for me.

I tried ipconfig and saw my local IP (192.168.1.5), then googled "my ip" to see the public one. Mind blown that there are two!

Quick follow-up: why does my public IP change sometimes? Is that normal?

Y’all are the best—no more confusion! 😊
