IP Address router

[Gav]

hello all

I had written a program a while back which simply grabs the ip address of my pc and using ftp uploads the file to a webspace. (This was written in C++)

I have now purchased a Linksys router so now the IP address that I want is stored in the router and my pc gets a 192.168.0.x ip address, does anybody know how I can get the ip address from my router

Thank
Gav

try http://192.168.1.1. I think this is the default IP for the router. The
router manul should mention this also.

You might want to look into coding for UPNP (Universal Plug-and-Play) most
of these dsl/cable modem routers support it now, and this may provide the
functionality you are looking for.
Otherwise, if you are looking for the actual public IP address of the
router, you might be out of luck, as most of these routers only provide an
HTML interface to their settings, and have done away with telnet or SNMP
access to their settings.

All you need to do is use one of the many services on the internet that can query your external facing IP address, such as : http://checkip.dyndns.org..... there are plenty more. Just a few lines of code to query a URL will get your your IP address.
