What this tool shows
This page shows the IP address detected from your current request, the IP version, and which request header or server value supplied it. It is a fast way to check how your connection appears to a website.
Why the value can vary
Some networks, VPNs, proxies, hosting layers, and CDN services can change which IP reaches the site first. That is why the tool also shows the source used to determine the address.
What to keep in mind
On local development environments or internal networks, the detected address may be private or reserved instead of public. In that case, the value is still useful for debugging, but it is not your public internet-facing IP.
How it works

How it works
How the IP is detected
- • The server checks common request sources such as Cloudflare, forwarding headers, and the remote address value.
- • The first valid IP found is treated as the detected address for this visit.
- • The page classifies the result as IPv4 or IPv6 and notes whether it appears public or private/reserved.
- • You can copy the detected IP instantly or share the page with someone else.

FAQs
Common questions
Is this my public IP address?
Usually yes when you visit from a normal internet connection, but proxies, VPNs, CDNs, and local environments can affect which IP is shown.
Why does the address change sometimes?
Your IP can change when your ISP refreshes it, when you switch networks, when you enable a VPN, or when the request passes through a different proxy path.
What is the difference between IPv4 and IPv6?
IPv4 is the older dotted-number format, while IPv6 is the newer longer format designed to support far more unique addresses.
