URL and IP address are not the same thing, iP is internet Protocol, a protocol used for communicating data across a packet-switched internetwork using the Internet Protocol Suite, also referred to as TCP/IP.
Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that specifies where an identified resource is available and the mechanism for retrieving it. In popular usage and in many technical documents and verbal discussions it is often incorrectly used as a synonym for URI,
The best-known example of a URL is the "address" of a web page on the World Wide Web, e.g. http://www.harddiskdriverepair.com. and its ip is 216.65.21.62, on this ip there may be have many different domain[url].
Yes, a URL and web address are the same thing. You can also get to a website by typing in that websites IP address.

That's not a URL. Its a IP Address.
An IP address is a series of numbers used to identify a domain name or certain computer online. A URL is the address of a website online.
IP address is a special order of digits which uniquelly identifying computer in network. URL is understandable name for people which corresponds to certain IP address. It's not easy for most people to remember IP address but much easier to remembers URLs which have usually really simple name which not hard to remember. You can call website either by URL or by IP address.
You can save the URL under favorites. Also, if you know the IP address of a Web page, you can use the IP directly. The URL is only supposed to be a convenient "shortcut" for an IP address. To find out an IP address of a certain destination, open a command window and give the ping command; for example: ping www.google.com.
using ip address on your url address
you have to talk to your hosting provider about this stuff. I have encountered the same problem with my hosting provider, good thing they had great chat support we configured the ip's live on chat If you have a 'shared' hosting, then your website will have an IP address which is shared with other websites. If you have a good hosting provider they may give you a separate IP address. If you have a dedicated hosting (not virtual hosting), then your website should have a unique IP address. Just ping your URL to find out what the IP address is.
Computers don't have URLs, they have IP addresses. And yes, you can get someone else's IP address.
No, MAC addresss and IP address are not the same. MAC addresses are "hard-coded" into the Network Interface Card (NIC) and only ID that individual card. The IP address is software generated and ID's both the network and the individual host.
An IP address is the same thing whether you use Linux, Windows, OS X, Haiku, ReactOS, DOS, UnixWare, etc. An IP address is a "unique" identifier for a host on a network.
yes it can. here's how, Google what is my ip address. Then open one of the links and it will display your ip address. The ip address is the address for your internet or wireless. If you go on another computer and do the same thing in your house that's connected to the same network you should see the same ip address. If you go out side and connect to a different network then the ip will be different. usually websites with downloading are traced but im not shure about just viewing it...
