IP address detector

FAQ

• Is the IP-address stored on my computer?

  Yes, you can find out your computer's IP with the help of the network card. If you access the Internet using a router, as is often the case when connecting through an ISP, your IP address on the network will match the address of this router, but not your computer. Therefore, it is better to check the IP in one of the online services, for example, on this page.

• What devices IP can be checked?

  Every Internet user, or rather, his device, has an IP address. The provider automatically issues an IP address to every device connected to the Internet. It looks like a set of four numbers from 0 to 255 with dots placed between them. This is the so-called "external" IP address, that is, the one with which you access the Internet.

• What to do if the set IP differs from the displayed one?

  In this case, we recommended you to check the correctness of the proxy settings, if it was connected. Perhaps the proxy is private, and the settings were made as for free one. Also, there may be a problem on the proxy side, for example, disabled / invalid data for authorization.

• What to do if the country of displayed proxy is wrong?

  IP information services are databases such as IP address or subnet. This parameter cannot be changed in any way. This parameter depends on who currently owns the network (which country) in which the IP address is located. For example, the server might be Germany, the displayed IP is another country. This is due to the fact that the owner-country has not been fully updated with all databases.

• May I check the current IP after it was changed?

  Yes, you can make sure that it is displayed correctly using our service.

• How to distinguish IPv4 from IPv6?

  IPv6 and IPv4 are two versions of the Internet Protocol (IP) that differ in their address length. The first IP format has 128 bits and the second one has 32. IPv4 looks like 100.101.102.103. IPv6 looks like 1002:0db3:45a6:0000:0000:7a8e:9460:5334.
