IP Location Details
Powered by IP2LocationAbout IP Location Lookup
When you visit any website, your device connects using its IP address - a unique identifier that can reveal your approximate geographic location. Our tool helps you understand what information is visible to websites you visit.
An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a unique numerical identifier assigned to every device connected to a network. It serves two main functions:
- Network interface identification
- Location addressing (providing approximate geographic location)
There are two versions of IP addresses in use today: IPv4 (e.g., 192.168.1.1) and IPv6 (e.g., 2001:0db8:85a3::8a2e:0370:7334).
IP geolocation accuracy varies depending on several factors:
- ISP data: Some ISPs provide more precise location data than others
- Type of IP: Mobile IPs are typically less accurate than fixed broadband IPs
- Database quality: We use multiple commercial and open-source databases
In most cases, IP geolocation can identify the city or region, but rarely the exact street address.
Yes, there are several ways to hide or change your apparent IP location:
- VPN services: Route your traffic through servers in other locations
- Proxy servers: Similar to VPNs but typically less secure
- Tor network: Provides strong anonymity but slower speeds
Each method has different trade-offs between privacy, speed, and convenience.
