Not if you are using a firewalling router in 'gateway' mode between
you and the dsl modem and all your inhouse boxes are on a 192.168.x.x
subnet.
In that case, the outside IP address exists only in the routers status
page when it is 'online'. You can either use a browser to query the
routers status page, or use the output of http://checkip.dyndns.org
from your browser.
