What is the command (Linux Mint Julia) to discover the IP Address of a computer connected to a wireless router? |
If you refer to the IP Address of your current computer, you're looking for ifconfig and iwconfig. For discovering other computers on the network, I like to use nmap. Example:
Be aware that scanning the network with ifconfig -a if you are on the PC in question and need to know the IP of it; otherwise sudo nmap -sS 192.168.1.1/24

All the other answers are correct, depending on exactly what you're after. In addition wireless routers usually have a web management screen with "Current DHCP Leases", which tells you who is on your network. Or at least those that have been given an IP address - it does not tell you those that have allocated their own addresses for which nmap is the answer. |
