IP addresses, briefly
What is a public IP address?
A public IP address is the address the rest of the internet sees when your network sends a request. Your internet provider assigns it to your router or modem, and every device behind that router usually shares it. It is how replies find their way back to you.
Why can my IP address change?
Most home connections use a dynamic address, which your provider can reassign when your router reconnects, after an outage, or on its own schedule. Mobile networks change addresses even more often as you move between cells. A VPN or proxy replaces your address for as long as it is connected.
How accurate is IP location?
IP location is approximate. It is derived from registration records and routing data, so it usually identifies the country correctly and the city often, but not always. It does not reveal a street address, and it can be wrong by hundreds of kilometres — particularly on mobile networks, satellite links, business connections and VPNs.
What is the difference between IPv4 and IPv6?
IPv4 addresses are 32 bits, written as four numbers such as 203.0.113.10. There are about 4.3 billion of them, which is no longer enough. IPv6 addresses are 128 bits, written in hexadecimal groups such as 2001:db8::1, and there are effectively unlimited numbers of them. Most networks now run both at once.
Can an IP address identify my home?
Not on its own. An IP address identifies a network, not a person or a building. Your internet provider can link an address to a subscriber account, but that information is not public and is normally only released under a legal process. Public IP lookup tools, including this one, see only the approximate region and the organisation that owns the address block.
