Android version 13\

After hours of googling and ChatGPT I randomly found my IP address, instead of being among network-related settings, was among "status information" (why?)
I have no Android experience, but I am a Linux enthusiast and therefore thought about checking the network configuration files in
/etc
; I downloaded terminals but I couldn't go anywhere: almost all commands are unusable. I understood that Android did some kind of restriction on the file system, even reading files is a hassle. ip
and netstat
yielded errors.
I decided to unlock the "developer options", connect my phone to the PC, and try to navigate it from there. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the root folder / all I could find was 'Internal Storage' with its DCIM, Documents... subfolders.
I read that through some apps, the default gateway can be obtained. I think though that if apps can do it I should be able to do it as well.
