      Ditto. Both return the IP of my router/firewall, as I would expect them
      to.

        If you are using a combined modem/network card, (or a machine with modem and
        separate network card) then one of the IP Addresses *may* be reported as
        that of the dial-up(modem), the second address *may* be that of the network
        card.

        *IF* you are using a Windows based machine, the best thing would be to
        either run:
        "WINIPCFG" (Windows... Start Menu - norm bottom left...Select Run... Enter
        WinIPCfg)
        - this opens a dialogue box where you should see PPP Adapter (dialup-modem)
        and possibly any other additional network cards.

        OR

        Goto DOS prompt (Windows ... Start..Run..."C ommand")
        and enter "Ipconfig" - this will show Ip addresses associated with various
        bits of hardware.

        Hope it helps ;-)
