that is interesting.
i got another url offline (MBS) for this and it does not show the same IP.

http://www.whatismyip.org/

whatismyip.org is showing the HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR HTTP header instead of the REMOTE_ADDR as which was previously mentioned.

For me, both checkip.dyndns.org and whatismyip.org both show my 192.168.1.18 internal address and not 24.98.227.254 (which is my real ip address) which is what prompted me to put checkip.ellenburg.org up. Compare the FORWARDED_FOR line on my checkip script against those two sites. For the actual IP address, look at the first line (REMOTE_ADDR).
