Finding my IP remotely

Hi, as the message says - is there anyway to find my IP remotely as it isn't listed in the control panel under settings? I need to RDP to my machine at home but since the last time I did this it seems my IP address has changed.

Re: Finding my IP remotely

Thanks for responding but I am not at the computer or in the same location as the connection hence the need to RDP in to it, I was hoping to get my routers current IP from the control panel on plus.net but it doesn't list it.

If you're using RDP I would suggest asking PlusNet for a fixed IP.
There is a fixed charge of £5 I believe.

Thanks guys - no one at home sadly. Wasn't aware I could get a fixed IP, i'll look into it thanks for the heads up.

Re: Finding my IP remotely

A static IP address is a one-off £5, it's worth that alone for setting up a ThinkBroadband Quality Monitor.
