@BranoB Thanks, but I don't really feel comfortable given out my public address. I'm sure you understand. However 'whatsmyip'confimed the same address as what's in my config

 


As you wish, whatever makes you feel secure and comfortable. But to answer, no I don't understand. I don't understand why people think that not giving out public IP is any security. As I type this there are hundreds of Internet bots scanning your public IP looking for countless ways to get in. Your IP is public! The fact that you believe it's not is quite misleading. Only firewall will protect you, nothing else.
