It’s the computer’s address and identity which is used to identify it among all the other computers and network devices. This error, as you can see in the message, shows that the IP address you have is in use. Usually, this is a Private IP Address and has nothing to do with your Internet Provider since it is a glitch with your PC Settings or Router. All Private IP Addresses on your network must be unique.
