You and Patti are inside the local network, therefore UD is seeing your
local network address.

John Smith is logged in over the internet, therefore he shows up with
the address assigned to his router (if he has one). His address may be
either (a) the IP assigned to him by his ISP, or (b) he may be assigned
a NAT'd address by his ISP and it's the address of the ISP's router.

David:

I have a Netgear 5GT firewall/NAT that is assigned an external IP
address from Comcast.  My external web access uses this assigned
IP address and my email does too.

What's up with UD?
