Want a domain’s address instead? Use the DNS lookup or the domain checker, which show where a domain points and who hosts it.

Your address is found by asking ipify, and the details come from ipwho.is and Cloudflare DNS, all straight from your browser. Binfield does not see or store them.

questions

Good to know

What is an IP address?

A number that identifies your connection on the internet, so websites know where to send what you asked for. Yours is given to you by your internet provider.

Is it safe to show my IP address?

Yes. Every website you visit sees it. It does not reveal your name or street address, and this page does not store it.

Why is the location wrong?

The location comes from your provider’s records, so it often shows a nearby city, or a different one. A VPN or mobile network can make it wrong by a long way.

What is the difference between IPv4 and IPv6?

IPv4 addresses look like 203.0.113.7. IPv6 is the newer, longer format. Many connections have both.

Why does my IP address change?

Most home connections get a new address now and then. Business connections can pay for a fixed one.
