I found a post about it here: https://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/348/acquire-device-ip-addresses-monotouch-since-ios6-0

it goes as follow: Try using System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInterface:

foreach (var netInterface in NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces()) {
if (netInterface.NetworkInterfaceType == NetworkInterfaceType.Wireless80211 ||
    netInterface.NetworkInterfaceType == NetworkInterfaceType.Ethernet) {
    foreach (var addrInfo in netInterface.GetIPProperties().UnicastAddresses) {
        if (addrInfo.Address.AddressFamily == AddressFamily.InterNetwork) {
            var ipAddress = addrInfo.Address;

            // use ipAddress as needed ...
        }
    }
}  

}
