What's the Difference Between Public IP vs Private IP Range? Need Clarification! or Public IP vs Priv

Yo, think of it like an apartment building. Your public IP is the building address, and private IPs are apartment numbers.

The mailman (internet) only needs the building address (public IP). Your router (mailroom) sorts out which apartment (device) gets what. NAT’s just the mailroom clerk doing the sorting.

Messy? Maybe, but it works!
