An Internal one which as stated 192.196.x.x that allows your computers in your home to talk to each other and an external one, that your ISP provides. This allows your computer to talk to other computers on the internet such as web servers.

I remember that range being used on the college’s network.

You gave me an idea to do an article on how to make different cables, like null modem, at home. So much cheaper! And who doesn’t enjoy a little solder iron burn every now and again?
