When i use the TCP/IP Analyzer it uses the wrong ip address, os i looked in the help, and unchecked everything in lan settings, still it didnt work. i then did "regsvr32 -u ahiehelp.dll" under run, and i got this error:

LoadLibrary("ahiehelp.dll") failed
GetLastError returns 0x00000485

Can someone plz help me?

Well, the regsrv fix is for @home, you are on Road runner.

Your IP address comes back as 24.167.10.x, doesn't appear to be going through a proxy. Does this agree with the IP shown when you run winipcfg?

no, its not the same ip shown in winipcfg.

Ive heard of @home, what it is that?

What IP address do you have? If you wish, you can email me.

Is it of the form 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x?

Umm, @home is another cable service. Road Runner and @home are the two largest in North America.

Your IP address results from Network Address Translation, or NAT. Are you behind a router? If not, your provider is doing NAT. I wasn't aware that Road Runner did that.

Has it always been this way?

What do you need help with? What you've reported thus far is normal behavior for a system behind a router.

We'll try, but need to know what the problem is.

Thanks,

Kip

ahiehelp is a piece of software installed by the @home setup routines. You are not on @home, so you don't have it installed, should not have it installed.

Your IP should be different. That is what a router with NAT is supposed to do.

oh ok, i see, so the ip shown in the TCP/IP analyzer is wrong or correct?

Sorry if im asking to many questions, im just curious.

Kip Patterson · Post by **Kip Patterson** » Mon Aug 13, 2001 12:39 pm

It is correct. That is your IP on the Internet.

Your IP on your network is the 192.168.x.x address.

The router translates one to the other.
