If i have my LAN and WiFi enable which connection will be used. Also what about the IP addressing seeing that both connection gets an IP address from DHCP?
 
If both are connected to the same network, windows will usually attempt to use the fastest one. In most cases this is the wired one.

As far as Ip addressing, each connection should get a different Ip address. In the same range of course.

You would get a lot of useful information about your connections and IP addresses by using the IPconfig /all command from a Command Prompt.
