An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a unique numerical label assigned to every device connected to a network. It serves two primary purposes - identifying the host or network interface, and providing the location of the device in the network. There are two versions currently in use: IPv4 (e.g., 192.168.1.1) and IPv6 (e.g., 2001:0db8:85a3::8a2e:0370:7334).
Understanding your IP address is important for network troubleshooting, security audits, and verifying your VPN connection. Developers and system administrators often need to check IP locations when managing servers, configuring firewalls, or analyzing traffic patterns. You can also use our Text Transform Tool to format IP data, or the Sitemap Generator to manage your web properties.
IP geolocation is typically accurate to the city level for most residential IPs. Country detection is 95-99% accurate, while city-level accuracy ranges from 50-80% depending on the region and IP type. Mobile and VPN IPs may show different locations. For more precise location data, consider combining IP geolocation with other techniques.
CIDR (Classless Inter-Domain Routing) notation like 192.168.1.0/24 defines IP address ranges. The number after the slash indicates how many bits are used for the network portion. For example, /24 means 256 addresses (192.168.1.0-255), while /16 means 65,536 addresses. This tool calculates the full range including network address, broadcast address, and usable hosts.
Residential: Home or personal internet connections from standard ISPs. Datacenter: Server and cloud provider IPs (AWS, Google Cloud, etc.). VPN/Proxy: Traffic routed through privacy services like NordVPN or ExpressVPN. Mobile: Cellular network connections. This classification helps identify potential bot traffic or privacy tool usage.
Yes, we don't store or log any IP addresses you look up. The geolocation data is fetched in real-time and not retained. Your own IP address is only displayed to you and not saved on our servers. The lookup history is stored locally in your browser and never sent to our servers.
Yes! You can enter domain names like "google.com" or "example.org" and our tool will resolve them to their IP addresses before performing the geolocation lookup. The resolved IP will be shown in the results. This is useful when you want to find where a website's server is located. You can also check domain details with our WHOIS Lookup tool.
IP geolocation has many practical uses: verifying your VPN is working correctly, checking server locations, network troubleshooting, security auditing, analyzing website traffic origins, fraud detection, and content localization. Developers often use it for geo-targeting features or compliance with regional data laws.
