I would like to know my IP address. I know that I can see it by typing ipconfig in cmd, or going to the website as "whatsmyip.org/" or by clicking on the "Wireless Network Connection" at the bottom right at the clock on your PC. Only problem is that it is different everywhere.
That is, the IP address in ipconfig, and on the "Wireless network connection" are the same. But it is completely different from the one I get up on the "http://www.whatsmyip.org/". Moreover, I just got a new password from a site, and the email had the IP address behind the request for new password. However, it was all together different from what appeared above. Why is it so? Is it perhaps true that one address (from "whatsmyip.org/" is the address of my router and the other (from ipconfig in cmd) is the PC's address?
If this is so, how come the site know about my IP address? If I have an address for the router, and an address for my PC, what can the rest of the internet can see? Router's address? PC's address? Or both of them?
