Hi
When I turned my computer on this morning and connected the cable modem (yes
I do close CM every night).
as usual my Zone alarm has detected new network with an IP. But this morning
I noticed that the IP address looked different than usual i.e. 82.1.99.179.
I have checked the IP on this website
http://www.checkdomain.com/cgi-bin/c...in=82.1.99.179
and it shows some address in Amsterdam.
I was expecting NTL in UK.
Is it normal for the CM to be connected somewhere in Amsterdam?
I really don't know what to thinks.
Any help to clarify this matter please.

Thanks

I did a tracert on 82.1.99.179.. it's an NTL address connected to the Stoke
exchange - if you live around that area, it's probably your own IP address
and is nothing to worry about.

NTL IP addresses are dynamic and can change - especially as you say you
unplug your modem at night. I'm guessing your IP address has just updated
and caused zonealarm to alert because it's a new address.

you have just got a new NTL IP number see Sam Spade output below

Since NTL IPs are not fixed if you turn off the modem you can easily lose
your current IP
To help to keep your IP do not swich off the Modem at night

RIPE (Regualtor for Internet Protocol in Europe) is based in amsterdam for
some reason.

It depends on how up to date the records are on the site you're checking.
Every now and again, I end up with a Wanadoo France (according to RIPE) IP
address even though I'm in Spain.

Nothing to worry about.

"Réseaux IP Européens" (European Internet Protocol Networks) and its NCC
(Network Control Centre) is in Amsterdam as it has to be somewhere, the fact
that a yahoo **** off great transatlantic backbone makes landfall there (Ams
IX http://www.ams-ix.net ) helps. Linx is larger, but last I looked into it,
Ams IX had more capacity.

In any case, if RIPE was in London, the French would still be honking about
it now.
