Nice and clean! and nice find for that website. Most websites I found were not shell friendly.Powershell-
Code:$a = new-object System.Net.WebClient $a.DownloadString("http://myexternalip.com/raw")
telnet
open myexternalip.com 80
GET /raw HTTP/1.1
Host: myexternalip.com
nslookup myip.opendns.com. resolver1.opendns.com
$ curl -s http://myexternalip.com/raw
<my external ip>
$
Why make it so difficult? Curling almost any of those sites will work.
e.g. curl -s http://myexternalip.com/raw
Code:$ curl -s http://myexternalip.com/raw <my external ip> $
Doesn't look like it. They have a separate download for it though. Think I would just prefer nslookup method myself. Works in windows and linuxIs curl included in windows?

Why all this going to an external site business? SSH+sh ip int br or whatever toy router equivalent.
I don't understand?
The powershell thing works nicely. How do some gadgets and programs find your external IP, though? I mean.. does the operating system "know" what it is? Or can your external address only be seen externally, period?
Thanks guys...
Yeah, I guess you can't. It makes sense that the computer itself may not know it's own external IP address, but I just figured it could find that out without using an external source... but maybe that's not the case.
No it would not make any sense at all if the computer did not know its' own external address. In the case of most home users the external address belongs to the router NOT the computer. Devices know their IP addresses be internal or external, public or private.
