What Is My IP FAQ

What is an IP address?

An Internet Protocol address is the number that identifies a connection on the internet so that data can be routed to it. Your public IP is the address the rest of the internet sees, usually belonging to your router or mobile network.

Is my public IP the same as my computer's IP?

Usually not. Devices at home or in an office have private addresses such as 192.168.x.x, and the router shares one public address among them. This page shows the public one.

What is the difference between IPv4 and IPv6?

IPv4 addresses look like 203.0.113.42 and there are only about four billion of them. IPv6 addresses look like 2001:db8::1 and are vastly more numerous. Many connections now support both.

Can someone find my home from my IP address?

An IP address usually reveals your internet provider and an approximate area, often only the city or region. It does not give your street address; only your provider can link an address to a subscriber.

Why does my IP address change?

Most home and mobile connections get a dynamic address that the provider can reassign, for example when the router restarts. Fixed (static) addresses are typically a paid business option.

What websites can see about you

Every request your browser makes carries your public IP address, because the server needs it to send the response back. Alongside it, the browser volunteers other information: its type and version, preferred languages, and, to scripts on the page, details such as screen size and time zone. Individually these are mundane; combined, they can help identify a browser across sites.

A VPN or proxy replaces the IP address that websites see with that of the VPN server, which is why checking this page before and after connecting is a quick way to confirm the VPN works. It does not change the other browser details, which is why privacy-focused browsers also try to make those details less distinctive.
