    WELCOME to virtualdr.

    The router changes your public IP to a private IP number.
    Now the public IP can only be changed by your internet provider.

    To see your public IP use this link http://www.whatismyip.com/

    Now to see your computers ip, go to Start, Run [type in] cmd and hit enter
    In the box that opens, type in, ipconfig /all
    then hit enter



    What you will get looks like this. I just changed some of the vaues but not the general outline.
