Just saying dont come at me with "Im a network engineer" spent 12 years working in cable 6 years as a Lineman, Dont try and talk about topics you dont fully understand the 192 and 172 ip addresses are the publicly assigned IPs to the network, hence depending on your ISP you ether have a 192 or 172 etc etc the 10. IP is directly assigned from the CMTS of said ISP

I wasn't referencing my occupation as a way of trying to trump you, but rather to let you know that I also am speaking from personal experience. You on the other hand are trying to do the exact thing you are condemning.

It is a fact that you cannot access the internet with a private 10.x.x.x, 192.168.x.x, or 172.16.x.x IP address. Every single home modem/router has a public IP address assigned to it and uses NAT to translate your private IP address to that public IP address. If you want to see an example of that, you can open a command prompt window on your computer and enter "ipconfig" and view your IP address. Then go to Google and enter "What is my IP address?". It will display your public IP address, and that address will not match what you saw in the command prompt results.

This is not something that differs across ISPs. It is basic network principles.
