Are you using AOL as ISP?
Your dynamic IPS change continuously. That's why they're different all the time. It has nothing to do with Microsoft.

Appending the "All" switch to the "IPCONFIG" command
(e.g. IPCONFIG /ALL ) will return both one's 'Connection-specific DNS Suffix' (e.g. ISP Domain Name Server), and the address of that DNS Server, even when one is behind a router.

I am using AOL dial up. Now, when I go on the internet and ask: "What is my
IP Address"? I get the following: (from the sites I have visited): 152.163.100 and the last digits change, sometimes 3 and sometimes 2, but all sites say 152.163.100...etc/yet my system says my address is: 172.145.180.86, is this a local thing? Also, should I be giving this info out over the internet? Thanks, Steve -- Thanks, Mavic517 "Tom Willett" wrote: Are you using AOL as ISP? Your dynamic IPS change continuously.

Thank you Og, and thank you all.
Question: can someone/anyone block "your" (anyones) IP address, and if so, how is this done? Is this what anti-virus/spyware/adware programs do? Do they compile a list of IP addresses and block them from "getting" to your/ a persons/orgainizations computer(s)? -- Thanks, Mavic517 "Og" wrote: Appending the "All" switch to the "IPCONFIG" command (e.g. IPCONFIG /ALL ) will return both one's 'Connection-specific DNS Suffix' (e.g. ISP Domain Name Server), and the address of that DNS Server, even when one is behind a router.

Do they compile a list of IP addresses and block them from "getting" to your/ a persons/orgainizations computer(s)? How about you tell us what you *really* want to know instead of hinting at it? Specifically, it is possibly for someone to configure a firewall/router to refuse traffic from your IP address. However that will only affect traffic to or from your IP address that passes through the router/firewall in question. In other words if your IP address is A and someone else's is B, then the traffic can only be blocked by a firewall/router somewhere directly between A and B. Usually close to A or close to B. In addition, some traffic may be allowed and some refused, depending on the service (mail, web browsing, ftp) that is being used. But as I said, indication of what your problem really is would help. Cheers, Cliff -- Have you ever noticed that if something is advertised as 'amusing' or 'hilarious', it usually isn't? |
