First, there’s a couple terms here. A192.168.x.x address is a private IP address as you have stated. Most likely, it is also dynamic in that your home router is probably handing out IP addresses as computers ask for them. It does this using a built-in DHCP server that serves just that purpose. 192.168.1.1 is the gateway address your computer uses to reach servers on the public Internet. It is also the address of the LAN (home network) side of your router. Your router also has a public IP address of 81.97.11.231 on the WAN port. The router has the job of moving data to and from the private LAN to the public WAN. However, it’s WAN address is probably also dynamic, not static. That is, your router probably asks your ISP to assign it an IP address by sending a request to your ISP’s DHCP server. If you were to shut off your router for a few minutes and turn it back on, it’s likely to get a new, public IP address that’s slightly different than your old address.
