lol @ australia :) ... i think the internet needs a new routing protocol...
as for p2p, i thought that in this case they would create a tunnel. Thats what tunnels are for.
But I guess they have their reasons for setting up a route instead (and I hope ignorance is not one of them :D ).
It just looks weird on a traceroute...

That:
4 45 ms 48 ms 49 ms 192.168.111.2
is a private IP. Normally it only exists inside companies, houses, etc...
If you want, private IPs are like phone extensions inside a company, if you want to compare to phone system.
Some IP ranges - 192.168.xxx.xxx and 10.xxx.xxx.xxx (and there is at least one more range, but I forgot it) are reserved for use in private networks only, and shouldn not be accessible from the internet.
