Never used XAMPP as I use an OS which do come with AMPP as system 
packages and those don't need to download 3rd party packages which may 
do things the wrong way nor relay on an OS which force you to do things 
in a bad way, but I guess it detected that you had an external IP and 
used it to direct you to the newly installed phpmyadmin.
