Hi,

I have a static IP address for a modem. I need to get the IP address of the modem using C# code? Can you help me by giving any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Do you mean public static internet IP of your modem or LAN static IP of your modem?
In first case, look at second part of "Answer 2" - that's probably the easiest way.

Maybe one of these answers can help[^].

have you tried with this

C#
var name = Dns.GetHostName();
var entry = Dns.GetHostEntry(name);
foreach (var address in entry.AddressList) {
   Console.WriteLine(address);
}



If still you are not convinces then have a look onto this as well

string ip = System.Net.WebClient.DownloadString("http://whatismyip.org/");

See When you are using dial-up(Modem), it uses PPP and if connection is assigned a public IP-adress. So the code(2nd part) above returns the same IP address as http://whatismyip.org/. For getting public Ip address you have to call connection from web. There is no way in c# to get public ip (Assume you have dynamic ip in modem) without internet connection
