Is your internet connection still working?
What command did you use in the Command prompt window?
Is your computer connected to the internet via a router? Or is it connected directly to a modem?
If you are connected behind a router, then the router assigns a "local" IP address to each computer connected to it. It is the router that connects to the internet and uses the IP address assigned by your ISP
So, if you want to find out the IP address assigned by your ISP and if your internet is working, Google, What is my IP?

Hi,
I am using a Acer laptop with
Windows 7 and recently a weird issue has cropped up. My computer's IP address
has given me a problematic internet connection. While using the "command
prompt" from "Run" option of the start menu, it says that the IP address is
invalid.
As far as my knowledge goes, a computer's IP Address can be found out
with this option. Can somebody give me an effective solution?
