Nyarlathotep Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 Gob, if you'd check this address, you'd see that it's again my work IP. But now still the Dutch flag is there.Like I said, it has to do with the "hide online status" and the Google adds :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gobalopper Posted December 17, 2003 Author Share Posted December 17, 2003 It might have just been a weird day where they used a different set of IP's or something. Just pretend you went on vacation to Atlanta yesterday. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyarlathotep Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 Then now I'm back in Atlanta. I switched PC at work and now I have the American flag again. So yes, it probably has to do with IP connectivity.I wish it would be that simple (and fast) in real to travel between countries ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gryphon Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 Doc, if it happend with just switching PC on at your work [ ie PC A has another IP block then PC B, those can be routed differently via a Dutch located network or an American one. You can even be in the same switch for that to happen. ]Besides that, considering the company you work for. . and the locatation. . you are next to if not ontop of the router who are sending the data to transatlantic fiber cables to the US. I won't be supprised if a few of the PC in our country have registered US IP's.Just a guess though. ..[ and I though your IP address belonged to Chello, or a former subcontracter of them anyway. . ;) ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gryphon Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 the internet is way to big to crash. .. at least I think. .different sections can always keep up large parts of it.And although Nyarlathotep is close to one of the Northern European backbones .. it's a connection in many [ not that many but still ;) ]Think that if wanted amateurs and individual ISP's can keep up sort of an internet just with dial-up connections like it started with.
