I.P. address who are you???

Wonga

To confirm that the adress is your router (not that it really matters now),

Click Start - Run
Type cmd (press enter)
Type ipconfig (press enter)

If the default gateway address is 192.168.1.1 then it is your router.

192.168.1.1 is the specific IP address that you can assign as trusted, however as your internal network is your own and managed by you, you can add the entire network by using the address 192.168.1.0 (i.e. everything on the subnet)

if i don't add it to the trusted site will it make any difference on the performance of the computer??

No performance issues but there is no point having the firewall keep alerting you of safew activity, you only want 'real' alerts otherwise you may become complacent to warnings.

thanks for your assistance

here is the result from run cmd ipconfig


ip address 192.168.1.2

This confirms the router is the address in question.
the cross (as alread mentioned) or type exit
