Want this question answered?
The problem with your IP address lies in the first octet. 127.0.0.1 addresses are reserved for loopback addresses.

(not so sure).. i think this block is reserved for loopback address on PCs
Local loopback address
127.0.0.1 is the loopback address in IP.... or in the (slightly modified) words of Dorthy Gale when she returned from Oz "There's no place like 127.0.0.1"
In IPv4, the loopback address is 127.0.0.1. In IPv6 it is ::1.
LOOPBACK ADDRESS - 127.0.0.0\8 IP Network range is reserved for Internal Testing.
The usual loopback address is 127.0.0.1 (but any address between 127.0.0.0 and 127.255.255.255 can be assigned to it) The address is also known as http://localhost/. In order to test the connection however a server would have to be installed. Apache is an example of a web based software server.

One major block of addresses reserved for special purposes is the IPv4 experimental address range 240.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.254. Currently, they cannot be used in IPv4 networks. However, these addresses could be used for research or experimentation.
Is it correct to say a block of rooms has been or have been reserved? Thank you. Cindy
A class D network is reserved for multi-casting. The class E series of network addresses are reserved for experimental purposes. 240 - 255 are reserved for class E addresses.
