Finding Internet Address

I'm battling to find code which can give me the Internet IP address of the computer I am on.

I have got this so far:

Code:

Dim x As System.Net.IPHostEntry = System.Net.Dns.GetHostByName(System.Net.Dns.GetHos  tName)
Dim y As Array = x.AddressList;
for each ele in y
  Console.WriteLine(ele)
next

If I dial up directly from my computer I get 2 ip adresses
But if I'm accessing the internet via LAN I only get my LAN IP

Basically I'm looking for the code that will always give the IP Address that the Internet sees.

Can anyone help?

'on recuper le nom del a propre machine
nomMachine = Dns.GetHostName()
'on prend l'IP codée correspondante
ipMachine = Dns.GetHostByName(nomMachine)

Don't worry it should work
