Post to the newsgroup that deals with your OS. There is no 'wan ip'
in C++ or its library.

If you know, why do you post here?

We discuss the C++ programming language as defined by the ISO standard.

Indeed. And if you are looking for info on programming any of those systems,
you need to use system specific libraries that are off-topic here.

Phone IT Support, tell them your name and the barcode on your computer,
and they will tell you. Well, that's what I'd do.

Which is to say, standard C++ has no concept of a "wan ip", so you need
to use a platform-specific library and you'd do better to ask in a
newsgroup dedicated to your particular operating system.

Yes, and each one of those is different, and provide their own APIs for
things such as networking. Standard C++ does not have any networking
built in.

Well, on my system this works:

#include <network>

using namespace network;

int main() {
address_t ip = get_external_ip ();
}

but as already mentioned, this is OS specific, I doubt very much you
have the same system as I.
