OTOH it's likely that there is a way to scrape the modem's web control
page for the IP number without having to ping external addresses. Might
be a bit messy though.

Actually the cleanest solution is probably just to use a service such as
dyndns and register a domain name (the basic service is free), then just
look it up when you need to. It means installing ddclient, but it's in
the Fedora repos.

It may be easy to do. I do it on a Speedstream all the time. ddclient does it with no problems. As long as the status page has something you can key on, and then whitespace between the key and the IP address.

use=fw, fw=192.168.0.1/, fw-skip='IP Address' # found after IP Address

I'm not all that well versed in Linux to know what your saying.
Could you please simplify that for me.

Thanks
Jim
