localhost & static IP

[行者]

Hi! there,

I am using cable modem with static IP. When I try asp.net
application, I have to use my IP (say 12.123.23.34) as my web adress
if my internet is on. ie. I have to use
http://12.123.23.34/webtry
I cannot use
http://localhost/webtry

If I want to use localhost, I have to stop my internet connection.

My question is wether I can use localhost while the internet is on?

If you are trying from the local host and using http://localhost/webtry, it should be ok.
If you can't use it, check the asp application. It may have a
configuration file, which define the IP address of localhost.
If should have no relation with the internet connection.
