Thats not your IP address, that is the Netspace Proxy IP.

As your IP changes, usually each time you reboot your modem or the connection drops out, I recommend getting a dynamic DNS redirector client which gives you your own domain name.

The Hub and myself use http://www.no-ip.com/ This will install a small client on your PC and give you a web address of your choosing. You may then put this in the active IP field in the DC client. This will Automaticly redirect the address to your correct IP.
Use of undefined constants causes assumptions!
