Ive noticed on this forum it shows the IP address of the person who set the thread off
So i got woundering how the IP address was given .
Ie mine starts with 82.---.-- at home but in work it 81.---.-- (work is a staic ip if that make a diff not dynamic)
but every one else in the uk has 86.---.--- with this forum
why is this ?

I think that the IP addresses only appear if your an Admin, but I'm not sure. Learning about the TCP/IP stack was fine, it was dynamic drive volumes that put my head in a spin. MSCE was soooo very long ago, heck it for Win2K for god's sake! If you are really interested I have some books. In fact a stack of books LOL All you may need to know here. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address

by default only admins should be able to see peoples ips
Wierd that mine shows as 82. because im on the new 77. range ready for me 50mb connection.

In theory/practice, mine should be dynamic, but if an admin can confirm this for me etc etc ....... ............. also would be interested to find out how the number starts (obviously not the full number on here)

If you want to know your external ip just go here whatsmyip.org/The only time that won't ressolve your true ip is if you go through a proxy
