Answer 1

Dim userIP As string = Request.UserHostAddress

Answer 2

Edit Caveat - the below is talking about an internet scenario. On a more limited (intranet) network, you may be able to assume a 1-1 User-IP Address mapping

Multiple users may appear to have the same IP address.

The same user may make two requests in a row from different IP addresses.

Whatever you're trying to do, using the users IP address for anything other than logging is probably pointless.
