resopalrabotnick Posted October 31, 2005 CID Share Posted October 31, 2005 your network connections probably show an ip like 192.168.xxx.xxx while the online ip is different. that's because the one your comp has is the one it uses to connect to the modem while the one seen online is the one your modem is assigned by your isp.

TheHalf Posted October 31, 2005 CID Share Posted October 31, 2005 Go to start menu>run and type in cmd Now type in the command window 'ipconfig /release' minus the quotes then retype 'ipconfig /renew' and give us feedback on your results.

anox195 Posted October 31, 2005 CID Share Posted October 31, 2005 lol, your probably looking at the wrong ip or your ip address can even change if your isp does not release you a static ip address Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/8758-why-do-i-display-2-ip-address-now/#findComment-91026 Share on other sites More sharing options...
netmasta Posted October 31, 2005 CID Share Posted October 31, 2005 The address shown on whatismyip.com is your external IP address, the one you use on the internet. The other one, most likely 192.168.n.n is your LAN address, which is used just inside your lan.
