whatismyip.com will only give an external IP address, if you are on annetwork and need to know the internal IP address of the machine, then click START - RUN - type "cmd" - type "ipconfig /all" - read where it says IP ADDRESS.

though whatismyip.com would work if it was external, even for mac right, so if its external, there's no problem.

yeah but aldog967 asked for the "url", whatever he means, and he hasn't been back into the thread so no one knows exactly what he's talking about. It could be external ip, it could be network ip, it could be something else.
