I wanted to know the IP address of a website.One way is to ping the website.For example if I want to know the ip address of google.com
then I can ping in command prompt.
Pinging google.com [74.125.236.195] with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 74.125.236.195: bytes=32 time=36ms TTL=49
Reply from 74.125.236.195: bytes=32 time=35ms TTL=49
Reply from 74.125.236.195: bytes=32 time=64ms TTL=49
Reply from 74.125.236.195: bytes=32 time=47ms TTL=49
So here 74.125.236.195
is the IP address of google.But for suppose I want to know the IP address of superuser.com
and if I try using the same way then I get 198.252.206.16 IP address.But If I put this IP addess in browser url then my browser does not take me to superuser.com.
Can anyone tell me how to get the IP address?
There is no such thing as "the IP address of a website". – David Schwartz – 2014-02-11T23:07:47.740

IP address of google,If not then what we call this? – SpringLearner – 2014-02-12T03:30:33.400That's the IP address of some machine, possibly one of many, that you can contact to access the website. – David Schwartz – 2014-02-12T05:00:29.570

"It didn't work" is not a helpful problem description. – David Schwartz – 2014-02-12T05:36:19.317
@DavidSchwartz Me and my friend have been trying since last 20 days.And he has also posted a question in superuser with bounty but none of the answer is helpful http://superuser.com/questions/706948/port-forwarding-in-d-link-dir-524-router
– SpringLearner – 2014-02-12T05:40:30.613I posted a comment in that thread. I suspect the problem is double NAT. – David Schwartz – 2014-02-12T05:45:39.323
