What is What Is My IP?

This tool instantly detects and displays your public IP address — the address that websites, servers, and online services see when you connect to the internet. Along with your IP, it shows geolocation details including country, city, region, ISP name, ASN (Autonomous System Number), and timezone, all with zero tracking or logging. Your public IP is assigned by your Internet Service Provider and can change periodically (dynamic IP) or remain the same (static IP) depending on your plan.

Knowing your public IP address is essential for many tasks: configuring remote access to your home or office network, setting up firewall rules that whitelist your IP, verifying that your VPN is working and masking your real address, configuring SSH access to cloud servers, troubleshooting network connectivity with your ISP, and checking whether your IP supports IPv4, IPv6, or both. This tool detects your IP the moment you open the page — no clicks required.

How to Use

  1. 1Open the tool — your public IP address is detected and displayed instantly (no button click needed)
  2. 2Review your IPv4 and IPv6 addresses if your connection supports dual-stack
  3. 3Check geolocation details: country, city, region, ISP, and ASN
  4. 4Copy your IP address with one click for use in firewall rules, server configs, or support tickets
  5. 5If using a VPN, verify that the shown IP belongs to the VPN provider, not your real ISP

Frequently Asked Questions

What is my public IP address and why does it matter?
Your public IP address is the unique identifier assigned to your internet connection by your ISP. Every device on your home or office network shares this single public IP when communicating with the internet (thanks to NAT — Network Address Translation). It matters because websites use it to identify your connection, services use it for access control, your ISP uses it for billing and traffic management, and it reveals your approximate geographic location. Open this tool and your public IP is displayed instantly.
What is the difference between public and private IP addresses?
A public IP address is globally unique and routable on the internet — it's how the outside world identifies your network. A private IP address (ranges like 192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, or 172.16-31.x.x) is used only within your local network and is not directly reachable from the internet. Your router uses NAT to translate between your devices' private IPs and your single public IP. You can have dozens of devices with private IPs all sharing one public IP. This tool shows your public IP — to see your private IP, check your device's network settings.
Can my IP address reveal my exact location?
Your public IP address reveals your approximate location — typically accurate to the city or region level, along with your ISP name. It cannot reveal your exact street address, building, or apartment. The precision depends on how your ISP assigns IP blocks to geographic areas. To mask your IP and approximate location, use a VPN service, which replaces your real IP with the VPN server's IP address. Tor browser provides even stronger anonymity by routing traffic through multiple relays.
Why does my IP address keep changing?
Most residential internet connections use dynamic IP addressing — your ISP assigns you a different public IP each time your router reconnects or your DHCP lease expires (typically every 24-72 hours). This is because ISPs have a limited pool of IP addresses shared among all customers. If you need a consistent IP (for remote access, running servers, or security whitelisting), ask your ISP about a static IP address, which stays the same permanently but usually costs extra.
How do I check if my VPN is working?
Open this tool with your VPN connected. If the VPN is working properly, the displayed IP address should belong to the VPN provider's server, not your real ISP. The geolocation should show the VPN server's location, not yours. If you see your real ISP name and your actual city, the VPN is either disconnected, leaking your real IP, or not configured correctly. Test with VPN on and off to compare the results.
