Instantly see the public IP address exposed by your current network—no setup required.
YOUR PUBLIC IP
Public IP observed for this page connection.
Location data is only an approximate estimate.
IP LOCATION
Google Maps displays automatically after GeoIP estimate coordinates are resolved, not GPS or a home address. The region may belong to a provider or VPN exit. Google is contacted to display the map.

Checking the public IP location.
AT A GLANCE
KNOW YOUR IP
It is the address your internet provider and online services use to identify your network. Multiple devices can share one public IP through a router.
Unlike private addresses such as 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x used inside a home or office, a public IP is visible to the wider internet.
IP-based location is an estimate at country or city level. An IP alone cannot confirm an exact home address or personal identity.
COMMON QUESTIONS
New to public IP addresses? Start with these quick answers.
A public IP address is the externally visible address used to identify your current network on the internet. Multiple devices can share one public IP through a router.
Yes. Your public IP may change when your provider renews its lease, your router reconnects or your network changes. Check this page again whenever you need it.
Typical IP geolocation is only an approximate country- or city-level estimate. An IP address alone cannot confirm an exact home address or personal identity.
If this page request travels through your VPN, its exit IP will usually appear. Split tunneling and IPv4 or IPv6 routes can change the result, so a single lookup cannot establish whether the VPN is leaking.
Device settings may show a private IP used inside your network. A connection passing through router or provider address translation can appear to external websites with a different public IP.
myIP reports the address family of one connection observed by the server or external IP lookup provider. Seeing one address does not prove the other protocol is unavailable; the tool does not measure both simultaneously.
Inspect IP syntax and common address categories, or calculate an IPv4 CIDR subnet. Your inputs are processed in your browser.
