Hello:
I´m using

HttpContext.Current.Request.UserHostAddress;

in my application and it works ok.
Perhaps in the code where you process the post there are more places where you assign the ip of the machine of the client. A breakpoint and exam the value of HttpContext.Current.Request.UserHostAddress could help you.

This is a very frequently asked question and if you googled it before posting you would have found the answer that you can't get the IP of the client machine, only the machine the request came from (so a proxy server for example). If the code you are using is returning the server IP then there is something about your set-up you're not telling us such as the server acting as a proxy to the clients.
