`192.168.56.1` is in the [private IPv4 address space](https://en.wikip
edia.org/wiki/Private_network#Private_IPv4_address_spaces), so this is
the internal address of the BBS insider your home network. Nobody
outside of your home network will be able to connect to it ...

Go to whatismyip.com to get the bbs ip. If you have a service like
comcast or time warner, your ip will change a lot. A service like no-
ip will solve this for you

I found a guide that might help: [The BBS Corner - Planning and
Starting Your Own BBS](http://www.bbscorner.com/startabbs/). It looks
like a fine guide overall, but specifically see the section about
"Putting the BBS on the Internet". HTH!

does that mean the modem IP?

If you go to www.whatismyip.com it will give you the public ip to your
modem/internet connection. So, yes.
