As others pointed out, it's an IPv6 address. Also noteworthy: Per IANA the 2505:: addresses aren't allocated for use by anyone.
Translation: This is either a simple configuration mistake or you otherwise have things (like a router/access point) on your network you really don't want.

Good passwords are hard to remember. A pattern that makes a password memorable is likely to make it vulnerable to attack.
A rather interesting scheme and allegedly secure.

Actually this is true, but we need to make use of multiple words. Password might have only one word in it, but we can have more than one word appended and mixed so that we can memorize it, and can be safe too.

While I tend to agree with you (Google the words in my above post),it this is not necessarily better, here a good read: http://arstechnica.com/security/2013/03/how-i-became-a-password-cracker/[^]
So you would need more than only putting more letters. For instance correctbatteryhorsestaple is easily found with a 4word rule in hashcat.

I was actually thinking that Duncan's solution below was a pretty good idea. The problem is, is I don't know the words to God Save the Queen so it would not work for me.

"When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life." - John Lennon

Nothing really and you are not alone, its still the most common one in use.

Solution: Always use a random password generator. Then every time you want to access a website, click on 'forgot my password'.

You could do this without any maths by having a particular song in your head that you know all the words to (for example the national anthem) then for any given site, find the first instance of the first letter of the site name in the song (e.g. for codeproject it could be "God save our gracious queen" then take the number of letters after that letter that correspond to the number of letters in the site name (e.g. for codeproject this would give "cious queen", trim spaces and replace vowels with the ordinal of the vowel in aeiou.
So - after all that you get the uncrackable password: c345sq522n
Then don't forget not to reveal this method and password to the whole world.
