What Is an IP Address?

An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a numerical address used to identify a device or network connection on the internet. Your public IP address is the address that online services can see when you connect to them.

Public IP vs. Private IP

A public IP address is visible to internet services. A private IP address is used inside a local network, such as your home Wi-Fi. This tool checks your public IP address.

What is IPv4 and IPv6?

IPv4 and IPv6 are two versions of the Internet Protocol. IPv4 addresses use a familiar dotted-number format, while IPv6 addresses use hexadecimal groups separated by colons. This checker can display either format when returned by the lookup service.

Is this public IP checker free?

Yes. You can check and copy your public IP address for free without creating an account.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can my IP address change?

Yes. Your public IP address may change when your internet provider assigns a new address or when you switch networks.

Does an IP address show my exact location?

An IP address may provide an approximate location, such as a country or region, but it does not reliably identify your exact home address.

Why is the IP address shown different when I use a VPN?

A VPN may route your internet traffic through another server. In that case, this tool may show the public IP address of the VPN connection rather than the address assigned by your internet provider.

Does NinaTools store my IP address?

This page does not save your IP address in its own code. However, the external IP lookup provider receives your request and may process connection information under its own privacy policy.

Why is my IP address not showing?

Check your internet connection and try again. A browser extension, network restriction, or temporary service issue may prevent the lookup.
