IP Tools

Discover your public IP, view location details, and test latency to a host without leaving the browser.

My IP & Location

Press a button to inspect your current IP and location.

Lookup IP Address

IP address or hostname

HTTP Ping / Latency

Hostname or URL

This sends a lightweight HTTP request via a proxy and measures the response time.

How to use the IP Tools

Your public IP address is what websites see when you connect. This tool reveals your current IP, looks up geolocation data for any IP address, and measures HTTP latency to a hostname — all from your browser.

1

Detect your IP

Click "Detect My IP" to fetch your public IP address and associated geolocation data including country, city, region, and ISP name.
2

Look up any IP or hostname

Enter an IP address or domain name (e.g. 8.8.8.8 or google.com) in the Lookup section and click Lookup to see its geolocation details.
3

Ping a hostname for latency

Enter a hostname or URL in the HTTP Ping section and click Ping. The tool measures how long an HTTP request to that host takes from your browser, giving an approximate latency reading.

Frequently asked questions

What is a public IP address?

Your public IP is the address your internet service provider (ISP) assigns to your router. It is what websites and servers see when you connect. It differs from your local (private) IP, which your router assigns to devices on your home or office network.

What is the difference between IPv4 and IPv6?

IPv4 uses four groups of numbers (e.g. 192.168.1.1) and has about 4.3 billion possible addresses — a number that has been exhausted globally. IPv6 uses eight groups of hexadecimal values (e.g. 2001:db8::1) and supports vastly more addresses to accommodate the growing internet.

How accurate is IP geolocation?

IP geolocation is typically accurate to the country level and often to the city level, but it is not precise. The reported location is usually where the ISP's network infrastructure is located, not your exact address. Accuracy varies by ISP and region.

Does a VPN change my detected IP?

Yes. When connected to a VPN, the IP shown is the VPN server's IP, not your real ISP address. The geolocation data will reflect the VPN server's location, not your physical location.

What does the HTTP Ping measure?

The HTTP Ping measures the round-trip time for an HTTP request from your browser to the target host via a CORS proxy. It approximates network latency but includes HTTP overhead — it is not the same as a low-level ICMP ping.

What is a CDN edge location?

Large services use Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) with servers distributed worldwide. When you ping a CDN-hosted domain, you may measure latency to a nearby edge server rather than the origin server, which is why results can seem surprisingly fast.
