IP Address Information
Our free online service lets you find detailed information about any IP address. Enter an IP address to get data on the country, city, region, provider, and host. A simple and convenient tool for IP address analysis, useful for developers and general users alike.
What it is and why
An IP address is the number under which your device is visible on the internet. It does not reveal a name or a street address, but it does identify the country, region, city, time zone and the ISP or hosting company that owns the address block — which is what this service shows.
IP geolocation is always approximate: for home broadband the city is usually right, for mobile networks often only the region, and a VPN or proxy shows the server’s country rather than your real location.
How to use it
- When the page opens, the service detects your own IP and shows its details immediately.
- To look up another address, type it into the field (IPv4 or IPv6) and press Check.
- The result lists country, region, city, coordinates, postal code, time zone and provider. Coordinates point to the centre of the city or network, not to a building.
When it helps
- Checking a VPN or proxy: confirm the country and provider changed after connecting.
- Reading server logs: see where suspicious requests come from or which country a user is in.
- Access rules: find your public IP to whitelist it on a server or database.
- User support: learn the region and ISP when something “does not load” for one person only.
Frequently asked questions
Why is the city wrong?
Geolocation databases map an address to the place where the ISP registered the block. For mobile carriers and large networks that can be another city or even region.
How is the public IP different from what my router shows?
The router shows a private address like 192.168.0.10 that only exists on your home network. The public address is assigned by your ISP and is what websites see — that is what this service shows.
Can an IP be traced to a specific person?
No. Public databases give only the provider and an approximate location. Only the ISP itself can link an address to a subscriber, and only on a lawful request.
