What Is Up With My IP Address?
I wanted to know what my IP address was earlier so I went to www.whatismyipaddress.com
Well according to that site my IP address is 80.192.xxx.53 I then went into CMD and typed IPCONFIG to double check but according to that my IP address is 192.168.1.103 Why is it that I'm getting 2 different readings? HK |

The 80 dot is your IP address provided by your Internet Service Provider, the 192 dot address is the one provided by your router (the one you're getting online through).

The 192.168.1.xxx address is being assigned from your router's DHCP - this address is 'internal' to your local network w/ the last numbers changing according to the number of computers being controlled by the router - this number is not 'broadcasted' on the internet because its range is reserved for such 'local' routers. Actually, I find this stuff rather confusing (but rather interesting!) - |

Interesting to know where exactly, if the map is correct, where the NOC is.
