Hey Guys, hopefully someone on here can help me. I have had trouble hosting IPX games over the internet. I've had success using the IPX tunneling just on my home LAN, using the local IP address of my host computer as the ipxnet connect address, but when I try to host a game across the internet, I can't seem to get it working. For starters, I don't know what IP to use, as I believe my isp has moved over to IPv6. When I type ipconfig, I get:

When I go to whatismyip.org, it tells me my IP is 108.194.254.158, which seems wrong, since I get the same result using a different computer but through my same wifi network. Makes me think my ips ran out of IPv4 addresses and now shares 108.194.254.158 amongst multiple users. Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas?
