What Is My IP Address?

What is an IP Address?

An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a unique numerical identifier assigned to every device connected to the internet. It serves as your device's "address" on the internet, allowing other devices to find and communicate with it.

Public vs Private IP

Your public IP address is visible to websites and services on the internet. Private IP addresses are used within your local network and are not directly accessible from the internet.

Why Check Your IP?

• • Network troubleshooting
• • Setting up remote access
• • Configuring firewalls
• • Verifying VPN connections
• • Checking location services

Privacy Note

Your IP address can reveal your approximate location and ISP. Consider using a VPN for enhanced privacy when browsing the internet.
