Hi all,
I am experiencing some very weird behavior with our connection at the moment. We have business broadband and opted for 5 static IPs. Of course the sales department lied and gave us DHCP reserved IP addresses but thats another story.
Now - whenever I have surfed the net, remotely accessed another server or whatever - our IP address has always been recognised by the remote system. (for example, go to
www.myip.com or
www.whatismyip.com to see what the outside world thinks your IP address is).
Recently, I have been unable to run scripts on remote servers or remotely control these servers as part of the security settings rely on IP. I've gone to
www.myip.com and for some reason, the outside world now thinks my IP address is 62.254.0.48 or 62.254.0.30 - these are NTL cache servers.
Now - I've done a lookup using

Does anyone have any ideas what could be going on?
Thanks
