Sorry if this has been asked before - I've searched the group and don't really understand some of the answers!
I'm used to connecting to the internet by a cable modem. Today I've just installed a broadband ISP that uses a router and DSL rather than a CM (or even a dial up connection that I had in the old days).
My firewall, ZA is reporting my IP address as 192.XXX , as is the ipconfig /all on the CMD funtion. Yet to the outside world I have a different IP number. Is my computer safe? As the external IP number is different to that recorded by ZA and my own computer on ipconfig there is nothing being recorded (eg port probes etc). I read that the router itself is the point at which my IP address is allocated (?) hence nothing being recorded by ZA.
Thanks for any help, I've been hacked in the past and I'm just worried about security.
