Please log in for more thread options Hi ... I got to ask a question about public ip's. If I go and get a block of ip's with an ISP. Will that mean that if I assign those block of public ip's to any computer on the internet that machine will be separately viewable!? ... Because I am using a cable modem attached to a netgear router. If I get the router to assign my LAN the block of public ip's they are not separately viewable from the internet. The ip that I can view from the internet is the ip address of my cable modem. I know I am doing something fundamentally wrong here.... cud some1 please cleariy this to me! Thanks. | |||||||||||||

The problem is no one will know how to get to them since the cable company is not going put those addresses into their routing tables. Even if you initiate the contact (i.e. bring up yahoo.com from one of those servers/pc) the data would not know how to get back. Secondly it hard to find an ISP that will just hand out ip addresses unless you are a customer. With that said, there are ways around it, but complicted and detailed. | |||||||||||||
