You can use it to get External (public) IP Address..

public static string getExternalIp()
    {
        try
        {
            string externalIP;
            externalIP = (new WebClient()).DownloadString("http://checkip.dyndns.org/");
            externalIP = (new Regex(@"\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}"))
                         .Matches(externalIP)[0].ToString();
            return externalIP;
        }
        catch { return null; }
    }
