Can I find the router ip address from a private ip address?
I want to remote connect to friends pc but he only knows his private ip address.

1. he has to give you his public IP, and then configure his router to allow remote access.He can get his public IP at:
www.whatismyip.com
Then you have to configure the router to port forward any connection software's ports to his PC, which must be at a static, internal LAN IP
2. Step 1 Open up the Command Line. This can be opened by going to start > run... (This is the search bar if in Vista or Windows 7) and typing "cmd" then press OK.
Step 2 In the black command line box, type "ipconfig" into it and press enter. This should post a return of a fair amount of information in the box.
Step 3 Among the outputted response, there should be a line labled "Default Gateway" Now look directly to the right of this and there should be a number similar to this format: 192.168.1.1 (it may not be the same)
To get to the router, simply open up an internet browser and type the number into the address bar. You should be prompted for a password.

3. To find out router IP address go:

To find out external IP address:

4. You do not need to look for router ip address if you want to find an ip address used in your network.
You must open command prompt and run ipconfig /all.
You will see your ip address and subnet mask. Example:

Fysiek adres. . . . . . . . . . . : 00-1E-65-67-68-B6

DNS-servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.198.5
NetBIOS via TCPIP . . . . . . . . : ingeschakeld
My ip is 192.168.198.74 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Now you must ping your broadcast address. Ping 192.168.198.254
Than you run arp -a and you will see ip addresses used in your network. Example:
C:\Users\Administrator>arp -a
Interface: 192.168.198.74 --- 0xc
Internetadres Fysiek adres Type

239.255.255.250 01-00-5e-7f-ff-fa statisch
255.255.255.255 ff-ff-ff-ff-ff-ff statisch
All with 192.168.198 are used addresses in my network.
You can also run net view. Example:
C:\Users\Administrator>net view
\\ATHENE
\\BERLIN
\\COMPE-NB-0001
\\COMPE-WS-0002
\\COMPE-WS-0005
\\COMPE-WS-0006
\\COMPE-WS-0007
\\COMPETE-NB17
\\COMPETE-NB18
\\COMPETE-NB21
\\COMPETE-NB23
\\DUBLIN
\\LAPTOP-PIET
\\LONDON
\\MADRID
\\MONACO
\\NAS2
\\PARIS
\\PEKING
\\ROTTERDAM
\\STOCKHOLM
Than you can run ping London. Example
C:\Users\Administrator>ping london
Pingen naar london.********.local [192.168.198.5] met 32 bytes aan gegevens:
Antwoord van 192.168.198.5: bytes=32 tijd=1 ms TTL=128
Antwoord van 192.168.198.5: bytes=32 tijd=1 ms TTL=128
Antwoord van 192.168.198.5: bytes=32 tijd=1 ms TTL=128
Antwoord van 192.168.198.5: bytes=32 tijd=1 ms TTL=128
Ping-statistieken voor 192.168.198.5:
Pakketten: verzonden = 4, ontvangen = 4, verloren = 0
(0% verlies).
And you will see that a computer with name London known with ip address 192.168.198.5
