Extra tips on the IP addresses
Remember that your public IP address is assigned by your ISP and is visible to websites and services you interact with on the internet. Most residential internet connections use dynamic IP addresses. This means that your ISP assigns a different IP address to your modem or router, and your public IP might change each time you connect to the Internet.
The local IP address of a device on your local network is typically assigned using a protocol like DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). This means local IP addresses in a network may change, especially in dynamic allocation scenarios, they can also remain the same for an extended period based on the DHCP lease time. If you have specific devices that need a consistent local IP address, you may configure the router settings to assign a specific IP address to a device so that address remains constant.
