Isn't this how IP addresses work?

No 8.8.8.8 here, try over there ...



Not really. As far as I understand it the routing tables should always point you in the right direction for an IP address.


A routing table being a list pairing an address to a location. Same with addresses. You need to know where London is or the next post hub where to send the letter.
