What is my ip???

[pushkaraj]

I m using my airtel gprs to use net on pc.

How do i know the ip of my computer?

I typed

ipconfig

and

ipconfig /release

in command prompt. The result dat i got is captured in the screenshot.

Is my ip address static

Coz sometimes i get error while downloading from rapidshare dat my ip is already downloading some file even though i m not

Does this mean dat my ip address is shared???

I think You dont have a Static IP
You have a Proxy One
wht IP you saw in IPCONFIG is the IP of your Machine & not your connection
you connection ip is what you saw in whatismyip.com


If you get the same result each time from whatismyip.com even if you disconnect & reconnet your connection that you have static otherwise its a proxy

just a side query. Can we talk on the phone while it is connected through gprs as a computer modem?

same wid almost every phone. this is feature has been only implemented in some of the newer and costly phones.

regarding ip address: on an airtel gprs ips are assigned to the apns and hence all the gprs users connected to it will share the ip.

Does this me my ip is shared with other airtel mobile office users

But i think no 2 computers can hav the same ip @ any given time

Does this also mean dat whatever info i exchange with various sites is visible and accessible to everyone who share my ip....

@ilugd the GPRS connection ll go on HOLD wen u get a call...
@pushkaraj wat u saw was ur machine ip...
but the one thru which u access sites is the airtel gateway ip..

thanks. That solves my query. I plan to take the cheapest interconnection, i am in Delhi. Airtel says they don't have any option with night unlimited and data cap in day. Is that right?
