What is an IP Address?
Introduction to IP Addresses
An Internet Protocol Address (IP Address) is a unique numerical identifier assigned to each device connected to the internet or a local network. It serves as the "digital address" of your computer, smartphone, or any internet-connected device, allowing data to be routed to the correct destination.
Types of IP Addresses
IPv4
A 32-bit number divided into four sets of digits (e.g., 192.168.1.1). It provides approximately 4.3 billion unique addresses.
IPv6
A 128-bit number represented in eight groups of hexadecimal digits (e.g., 2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334). It provides vastly more addresses than IPv4.
Static vs. Dynamic IP
Static IP
A permanent IP address that doesn't change. Commonly used for website hosting, servers, and business networks.
Dynamic IP
A temporary IP address that can change periodically. Most home internet connections and mobile devices use dynamic IPs.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I find my IP address?
You can use our tool to find your IP address or search for "What is my IP" in search engines. You can also check it in your device's network settings.
Can someone track my location using my IP address?
An IP address can provide an estimate of your general geographic location (city or region), but it cannot show your exact address. However, your Internet Service Provider (ISP) may know your precise location.
When should I use an IP lookup?
IP lookups can be used for troubleshooting network issues, investigating suspicious activity, analyzing website visitor locations, or understanding your own network security.
Can I change my IP address?
Yes, you can change your IP address by using a VPN (Virtual Private Network), through a proxy server, or by restarting your router (if you have a dynamic IP).
Is IP lookup safe?
Yes, our IP lookup tool is completely secure. We don't store your searched IP addresses or personal information. You can use our tool without any concerns.
