That's the address assigned for your computer/router, if not correct
check the documentation. If you can connect to your web server, Cheryl's
idea sounds best as routers are tricky things if you don't know what you
are doing and it will only take seconds for sniffers out on the net to
know you are open and exploit you and then you will be sad. There's lots
of ways to get your ip address the other way around, put a link on your
desktop to www.ipchicken.com is one way.
Then phone your friend and tell him what it is along with the password
to your router (you did read the part about changing the default
password on your router right?).
Simply zipping up the files with a password and ftp'ing is fast, and
he/she will then be able to get the files whenever they want them
without worrying about whether or not you're up and running and that
gives you time to read your router documentation a bit more.
