littlebit 247 Report post Posted November 7, 2013 I have been trying to find the IP address of access points and places around my home,which is on the internet! (Not a home network). I have been searching for a software to do this,but most of them just give me a MAC address! Is there a unique software which can do this,...does such a software exist which is easy to use and can help my specific objective? Can someone please shed some light on to my situation, or point me in the right direction please and thank you! Much appreciation up front! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eatmyshorts 201 Report post Posted November 9, 2013 You'll probably want something like...Cisco Network Magic..There are other ways of finding out for example if you have something plugged into an access point like for instance a laptop you can go to the network option in your control panel and find it that way. If anything is in these access points doesn't matter what it is, there will be an option somewhere in the software that will tell you the IP addy, doesn't matter if its a digibox or what have you. You'll also find if these all go through the same router which most stuff will do it won't be a direct access to the internet, then have a look in your router settings there should be a list of IP addies in there.

eatmyshorts 201 Report post Posted November 9, 2013 Oh so you've got a dongle? A usb plugin from a mobile phone company/internet supplier..

littlebit 247 Report post Posted November 9, 2013 No,..this is what I have! http://support.linksys.com/en-us/support/adapters/WUSB600N I don't have an Internet Service Provider,..I am piggy-backing someone's signal which is an unsecured access point! I want to know his IP Address! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eatmyshorts 201 Report post Posted November 10, 2013 Ah ok now we are getting somewhere...information upfront is always a better idea in the first place or its like pulling teeth.....you could ask them...if they don't know your doing it, then I can no longer assist in this matter because I don't support the idea of using someone elses internet connection without their permission If they do know that you're using it, then everytime you do a search for a wifi and find his..it should display the IP addy and/or the name of the connection.

daytrader 203 Report post Posted November 12, 2013 Yea, not sure I will help with wifi hacking either. You don't need to know the IP, to do what you're already doing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
