Yes, I know. But I am unable to login to my Airtel router to see the IP address assigned to it. Only then I can check if my public IP is same as the router IP. I am quite sure they will be the same, and if so, it probably means that Airtel is cutting off all inbound ports somewhere down the line as Arun mentioned.
