Looks to me that this page is not entirely accurate. (at least from where I
am) 
It would appear to get a proxy server somewhere along the way.

I would consider using the dynamic dns services - such as no-ip - and use a
perl script that updates then ping your dns name.
Not sure if they are more accurate that the below idea though.
