FAQ

What IP address is displayed?

The displayed IP is your public (global) IP address. This is the address that identifies your device on the internet, typically assigned by your ISP (Internet Service Provider) through your router or modem.

What's the difference from a private IP address?

Private IP addresses (like 192.168.x.x) are used within home or corporate networks internally. Public IP addresses are uniquely identifiable on the internet and are needed when accessing from outside.

Can my IP address change?

Yes, most home internet connections use dynamic IP addresses, which can change when you restart your router or when your ISP updates their configuration. Contact your ISP if you need a static IP address.

What happens to my IP when using a VPN?

When connected to a VPN, the displayed IP address will be the VPN server's IP address, not your real one. This is how you can verify your VPN is active — if the IP matches your VPN provider's server location, the connection is working.

Is my IP address information stored?

No, the displayed IP address is not stored on our servers. It's retrieved at the moment of page load and shown in your browser only. No logging or database storage occurs.
