get ip address behind router

[leontager]

Hi, how can i get my ip address if i am behind a router? I searched for this on the forum but all the methods that I found would only return the address of my router.

Not possible from inside your lan unless you can talk to the router via telnet or something, thats the point of the router, no?

Your computer only knows about the lan around you (subnet), every other address thats not in your subnet gets routed out through the router.

You need an external service on the WAN side that you can query and it reports back your external ip
