What Is My IP
See your public IPv4 and IPv6 address, ISP, and approximate location — instantly, free.
Your public IP is looked up directly from your browser via ipify and ipwho.is — this site's server never sees or logs it.
Location is a rough estimate based on your ISP's records — usually the right city or region, not your street address.

About this tool
This free What Is My IP tool shows your public IPv4 and IPv6 address instantly, along with your ISP, approximate city, and time zone. The lookup runs directly from your browser to public IP services — this site's server never sees or logs your address.
How to use
- Your IP appears automatically — no button to press.
- Copy the IPv4 or IPv6 address with one click.
- Check the ISP and region the internet associates with you.
- Reload after connecting a VPN to confirm it changed.
Common uses
Verifying a VPN or proxy is actually routing your traffic, giving your address to IT support or a game-server allowlist, checking whether your provider has enabled IPv6, or confirming your IP changed after a router restart. The location shown is your ISP's registration — a city-level estimate, not your exact address.
Frequently asked questions
What is my IP address?
Your public IP address is shown at the top of this page the moment it loads. It's the address the wider internet sees for your connection — assigned by your internet provider, shared by every device on your network.
What's the difference between IPv4 and IPv6?
IPv4 is the classic format (like 203.0.113.42) with about 4.3 billion possible addresses — not enough for the modern internet. IPv6 is its much larger successor (like 2001:db8::1). Many connections have both; if IPv6 shows 'not detected', your provider simply hasn't enabled it, which is common and harmless.
Is my exact location exposed by my IP?
No. IP geolocation maps your address to your internet provider's records, which usually resolves to the right city or region — not your street or home. It can also be off entirely, especially on mobile networks, since it reflects where your ISP routes traffic.
Why is my IP different from what my router shows?
Your router's admin page often shows your local network address (like 192.168.0.x), which only exists inside your home. This page shows your public IP — the one websites see. If they differ from another IP checker, your VPN, proxy, or mobile carrier's NAT may be in between.
Does this page log or store my IP?
No. The lookup happens directly from your browser to two public services (ipify for the address, ipwho.is for ISP and region) — this site's own server never receives it, and nothing is stored.
How do I check if my VPN is working?
Connect the VPN, then reload this page. The IP and ISP shown should change to the VPN server's — if you still see your home ISP, the VPN isn't routing your traffic. For a deeper check, run the WebRTC leak test, which catches leaks that a simple IP lookup can miss.
Why does my IP change sometimes?
Most home connections use dynamic IPs, which the provider can reassign — after a router reboot, an outage, or on a schedule. Mobile IPs change constantly. If you need an address that never changes, providers sell static IPs as an add-on.
