If I change the IP address of source in IGMP report i.e. if 
192.168.14.14 is changed to 11.22.33.44 then it is not directly 
connected to both PCs. Is there any other modifications required to 
prove that source is not directly connected?

Can you provide me the reference in RFC for this particular statement 
because I am not aware of this rule.

Thanking you,
