When connected to a network, ip address is assigned to the device. On computer, we can open up cmd and type in " ipconfig " to find out the ip address . For Raspberry pi, we can type in " ifconfig " into the terminal to find out the ip address.
We can type " ping __(ip address)__ " to find out the connection speed between us and another network by telling the strength, distance, and availability of the connection.
Download Putty from www.putty.org and by default port will be 22 so do not change it. Type in the ip address of the raspberry pi to connect your laptop to the raspberry pi and control it using the laptop. Both devices must be connected to the same Wifi .
Default account for raspberry pi is always:
User name: pi
Password: raspberry
Highest number of ip address is 255.255.255.255, in binary number will be 11111111.11111111.11111111.11111111. Smallest will be 0.0.0.0. There are 4,000,000,000 IP numbers in total In Singapore, most of us will have an ip address of 192.168.__.__ .
Reflection:
I think that it is very interesting to learn about ip address and connect devices together by using the ip address. Some games can also be connected by connecting to same wifi network and using ip address so it will be quite fun to be able to play the games with friends.
