    Are your two different computers part of the same network? If so it's common to have 1 or just a few external IP addresses. Commented Mar 16, 2015 at 9:28
  • Because, most of computers do not have their own global IP(just local in their network), but they have one IP of their provider(as usually) Commented Mar 16, 2015 at 9:29
  • ISPs and routers usually use something called DHCP with IPv4 which basically just assigns a single IP address to a household and then the router then directs it to the correct computer on your household network. IPv6 has a very large amount of combinations and as such DHCP is rarely used because it is not necessary. Two computers on the same network will both have the same public IPv4 address.

  • so can you suggest me another way to track the visitor in my page? Commented Mar 16, 2015 at 9:30

    You could simply use sessions and then create a function to increment 1 for every new visitor. There is many ways of doing this, if you don't want to code anything just use google analysis. Commented Mar 16, 2015 at 9:32
