IP Helper allows you to know both the internal and external IP from your computer. Knowing both the internal and external IP of your network adapter is very important because the internal IP address will identify your computer on your network, and the external IP address will identify your computer on the Internet, which will be required for routing the information. To get the internal IP of your computer you can usually open the network adapter status or open the CMD and use the IPCONFIG command. But to get the external IP address you have to go to a website or use another application that sends a connection request and returns the IP address of your computer.
With IP Helper you can save all these steps and automatically know the internal and external IP of your network adapter. Moreover, you can create notifications by email, by sending an HTTP request to a website or by opening a program to alert when either the external or internal address changes. The program also includes a log that records when any change to your IP addresses occurs. If you use a proxy server, you have to configure it in order for IP Helper to work properly.
