vb.net get my ip

[Gangreen]

I want to get my ip.

When i try to do this:

MsgBox(System.N et.Dns.GetHostB yName(System.Ne t.Dns.GetHostNa me).AddressList (0).ToString)

I get the ip within my LAN.

When i surf to http://whatismyip.com/ I get the ip I want to get in my vb.net program.

How can I do this?

This may not be the direction were wanting to take, but WhatIsMyIP has an automation page. You could do an HttpWebRequest, and use the response, like this:

[code=vbnet]
Dim ipReq As HttpWebRequest
ipReq = WebRequest.Crea te("http://whatismyip.com/automation/n09230945.asp")
Dim sr As New System.IO.Strea mReader(ipReq.G etResponse().Ge tResponseStream ())
Dim ipAdd As String
ipAdd = sr.ReadToEnd()
[/code]

For some reason, it seems like the code tags are screwing up a bit. There shouldn't be a space on line 3 at the .GetResponseStr eam())

ok, I have a server to which clients can connect.

I would like to know how I can find the external ip (in the server) of such a client, without the use of such an internet page.

Thx
