Here are some possible ways to do what you want. I'm sure there are more.

Have a specific entry address just for you that grabs your ip and stuffs it
in a file.  Then all your other pages that log IP can reference the file to
know what IP to ignore.

Or set a special cookie for yourself that basically says "Hey its me!"

Or similar to the first option, check a get passed variable to designate
that its you. (IE http://myaddress.com/page.html?isitme=yes) and either set
the ip in a file, or just keep passing isitme each time you switch pages.
The first choice better than the second, as you only have to grab your IP
and say that it's you once per session.

I'm sure there are better ways, but this should work.


Using an extra page as your private entry point or a cookie, as Mike suggests, are good approaches since in the scenario you describe (your using a dynamically assigned ip address) you want to exclude that address only for your current session. It might happen that the address you used on one day another user gets on another day and you would not want to exclude them necessarily. In order to do that, your system must either identify your connections as they come or log each of your sessions, in a file or in a database, so later analyses can exclude those connections.
