About IP Addresses

An IP address is a unique identifier assigned to every device connected to the internet. There are two types:

  • IPv4: Traditional format (e.g., 192.168.1.1)
  • IPv6: Newer format with more addresses (e.g., 2001:0db8:85a3::8a2e:0370:7334)

About IP Address Lookup

Every device on the internet has an IP address that reveals information about its location and network. Our lookup tool provides detailed intelligence about any IP address—useful for security analysis, fraud detection, and understanding your visitors.

Information Retrieved

Comprehensive IP intelligence includes:

  • Geolocation: Country, region, city, and coordinates
  • Network details: ISP name, organization, ASN
  • Connection type: Residential, business, datacenter, mobile
  • Risk indicators: Proxy/VPN detection, hosting identification

Common Use Cases

Security analysis: Investigate suspicious login attempts or attack sources. Fraud prevention: Detect location mismatches in transactions. Analytics enrichment: Understand visitor geography beyond basic analytics. Access control: Verify user location for geo-restricted content.

Geolocation Accuracy

IP geolocation is approximate, not precise. Country-level accuracy exceeds 99%. City-level accuracy varies from 50-80% depending on the ISP and region. IP addresses can be reassigned between locations, and VPN users appear from VPN server locations.

IPv4 vs IPv6

The tool supports both IP versions. IPv4 addresses (like 192.168.1.1) remain common, while IPv6 addresses (like 2001:0db8:85a3::8a2e:0370:7334) are increasingly deployed. Both provide similar intelligence quality.

Frequently Asked Questions

What information does IP lookup provide?
IP lookup shows: geographic location (country, region, city), ISP/organization, connection type (residential, business, datacenter), timezone, and related ASN (Autonomous System Number). Accuracy varies - city level is approximate, especially for mobile IPs.
How accurate is IP geolocation?
Country is usually 95-99% accurate. City accuracy varies: 50-80% for most IPs, less for mobile. ISP IPs may show corporate headquarters, not actual location. VPNs show VPN server location. Treat city-level data as approximate, not precise.
Why might my IP location be wrong?
Common reasons: ISP registered IP to different location, mobile networks route through central points, VPN/proxy hides real location, IP was recently reassigned. GeoIP databases update periodically but may lag behind changes.
What is my IP address?
We show your public IP address - the one websites see. This differs from your private IP (like 192.168.x.x) used on your local network. Your public IP is assigned by your ISP and may change unless you have a static IP.
What is an ASN and why does it matter?
ASN (Autonomous System Number) identifies networks that route internet traffic. Knowing the ASN tells you who operates the network - ISP, hosting company, enterprise, etc. This helps identify if traffic comes from hosting (potential bots) vs residential (likely real users).
Can I lookup IPv6 addresses?
Yes! We support both IPv4 (like 192.168.1.1) and IPv6 (like 2001:db8::1). IPv6 adoption is growing, and geolocation databases increasingly include IPv6 data. The same information types are available for both protocols.
