How did we (used to) detect local IP Addresses? If you do have more than one network adaptor, you can click on each one in the left-hand section of the Network window and look over on the right-hand side of the window to read each local IP address. This can happen if you are using a laptop with WiFi but also have it plugged in to a network cable or Thunderbolt or USB network adaptor. If you have more than one network adaptor, you will probably also have more than one local IP address. If you only have one connected network adaptor (as shown in the screenshot above), you simply need to look to the right of the Network window: macOS will show you what your local IP Address is and how you are connected to your local network. System Preferences will show you a list of your network adaptors up the side of the Network window it will put the connected interfaces at the top (and highlight them with a Green dot). Click on it to open your Network settings. Near the middle you will see the "Network" icon as shown in the screenshot. The System Preferences window will have a number of icons which let you view and control various settings for your Mac.
