Re: [Dev-C++] C++ Sockets

[Fernando L. <fer...@gm...>]

If you are accessing the Internet through a router, it is probably
doing NAT/PAT. The 192.168.1.102 address is a private address, that
is, it cannot be assigned to any interface on the public Internet. In
contrast, the address returned by whatsmyip is the IP address of the
public interface of your router.

Best regards,

Fernando

This can also result from connect, sendto, WSAConnect, WSAJoinLeaf, or WSASendTo when the remote address or port is not valid for a remote computer (for example, address or port 0).
