I am sorry, two random Internet users in Korea and Germany, your IP addresses are simply special.

    Ah yeah there’s a little misunderstanding. IP addresses can be represented as 32-bit unsigned integer numbers, where each 8-bit chunk is separated by a dot.

    So the conversion is: 133742069 (decimal) -> 00000111111110001011110111110101 (binary) -> 00000111.11111000.10111101.11110101 (8-bit chunks) -> 7.248.189.245 (resulting IP)
