May someone can answer this. Anytime I ignite my laptop to go online I see via etherape that I am connected to IANA as shown below. Is my provider redirecting me there, the cable under the sea, what is the reason for this?
You are not connected via IANA. 224.0.0.0/4 is a range defined and reserved by IANA for the use of Multicast-Applications. IANA is not an internet service provider but authority responsible for global ip address assignment.

In this case the reason is most likely that your computers use multicast DNS(mDNS) prior to the finishing of the IP-configuration. mDNS may be used if a computer has no DNS-Server set up to, be able to resolve host names into ip addresses without the need of an DNS-Server. There are a lot other applications for use with multicast.
