Your IP as you gave it traces to Mt Laurel, New Jersey, several hundred miles from the Great Lakes area. What's up with that discrepancy? [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] 09:32, 29 September 2007 (EDT)

:Hmm. Comcast is headquartered in New Jersey, I believe. My specific IP is allocated to Comcast customers in Michigan. Following is the whois result I get:

$ whois 71.238.113.184
Comcast Cable Communications, Inc. JUMPSTART-5 (NET-71-224-0-0-1)
71.224.0.0 - 71.239.255.255
Comcast Cable Communications, Inc. MICHIGAN-32 (NET-71-238-0-0-1)
71.238.0.0 - 71.238.255.255

Not sure what's up with the discrepancy exactly; Comcast gives weird whois results quite often. I've tried IP geolocation sites, and they consistently give me results in MI, which is where I live. [[User:ChrisChan|ChrisChan]] 09:37, 29 September 2007 (EDT)
