[PLUG] Curious Conky/ifconfig issue


I've just noticed something: conky's display of my IP doesn't match what I get at the command line w/ifconfig. When I run ifconfig, it displays the network device as wlp7s0, and gives its IP as 192.168.1.160. But, when I ask conky to display network information, like so...

${color cyan}WIRELESS NETWORK ${color orange}${color orange}${hr 2}${color white}
${color yellow}ESSID ${color white}$alignr${wireless_essid wlp7s0}${color orange}
${color yellow}IP Address ${color white}$alignr${addr wlp7s0}
${color yellow}Default Gateway ${color white}$alignr${gw_ip wlp7s0}
${color yellow}DNS Server ${color white}$alignr${nameserver wlp7s0}
${Color yellow}Wireless Mode ${color white}$alignr${wireless_mode wlp7s0}
%

it gives the IP a 10.128.12.106, which isn't even on the same network. And, it gets stranger. the IP address is given as 10.128.12.106, the default gateway as 192.168.1.1, and the DNS server as 10.128.0.1. That's 3 different networks, supposedly all associated w/the same network device.

What gives?
