That is an IPv6 address! Are you on a network that supports IPv6?

Maybe, local network. Using same network, I get IPv4 from
my Galaxy Tab: 192.168.0.86.

Hi. Just got my Xoom and down loaded B4A-Bridge 1.0
and got My IP: fe80::217:ff:fee0:db2c. How do I enter
that # (IPv6) into the PC's B4A-Bridge side ?
Thanks, Jerry

I've updated the Network library and GetMyIp method should now prefer the IPv4 address.
Can you please download the library and put it in the internal libraries folder.
The version is 1.02.
Then try the following code:

B4X:

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    Dim s As ServerSocket
    s.Initialize(0, "")
    Msgbox(s.GetMyIP, "")
End Sub

Which IP is returned?

YES! new network lib forces IPv4 and now B4A-Bridge works on Xoom

Thanks again! I compiled using your new network lib 1.02, and
putting in code, I get IPv4 address of xoom (192.168.0.90), and
I entered that IP address into B4A-Bridge on PC side and it WORKED!
Also my Galaxy Tab works too, giving IPv4: 192.168.0.86)
Thanks,
Jerry
