Weird Gateway IP Address
-
I was making some changes to my network layout and noticed a weird IP 10.11.4.57 address listed under my WAN gateway -
I don't use the 10.0.0.0 anywhere in my network and that is definitely not my public IP.
10.11.4.57 responds when I ping.Any idea what is causing this?

That's what your PPPoE provider chose to give you as a gateway address.
They might be able to answer your questions in more detail.

Is the gateway address normally different from my WAN interface IP? my WAN IP is in the 74.x.x.x range.

It can be anything the ISP wants for PPPoE

okay makes sense.. I'm surprised they use a rfc 1918 address but I guess the ISP can use whatever they want on their internal network.
