[QUOTE="jim7711, post: 1842947, member: 18264"] If your computer is on a Local Area Network such as at work and some homes (with routers) then every computer on your same network will show that same address on any website. Your computer will have a unique ip address on your local network inside your house or office but the website cannot see that. The website will only see the ip address of the modem no matter which computer on the LAN is accessing the website. If your computer is connected directly to a cable modem or DSL modem then that address is only for your computer. [/QUOTE]
