What Is My IP Address?
Your public IP address is the globally routable network identifier presented to external servers when your traffic leaves your fiber router or 4G/5G mobile carrier gateway.

Core IP & Network Diagnostics
Direct protocol utilities backed by IANA registries, APNIC RDAP, and RFC bitwise math
IP Address Lookup
Inspect country, telecom circle, ASN, ISP, and RIR allocation records for any IPv4 or IPv6 address.
IPv4 Connectivity Checker
Break down your 32-bit IPv4 octets in binary and check RFC 1918 private LAN or RFC 6598 CGNAT scope.
IPv6 Connectivity Checker
Inspect 128-bit hexadecimal hextets, zero-compression, and Indian dual-stack routing capability.
DNS Record Lookup
Query A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, CNAME, and SOA records over DoH with live TTL and RCODE status.
IP WHOIS / RDAP Lookup
Query authoritative APNIC, ARIN, and RIPE NCC registration records and abuse contacts via HTTPS RDAP.
IPv4 Subnet Calculator
Calculate network address, broadcast, usable host range, wildcard mask, and 32-bit binary netmask.
How Your Public IP Address Works on Indian Broadband and Mobile Networks
Every internet-connected phone, laptop, or router uses two distinct layers of IP addressing. Inside your home Wi-Fi or office LAN, your router assigns a private IP address from an RFC 1918 block (such as 192.168.1.x or 10.x.x.x). When your traffic reaches the public internet, your ISP translates that local address into a globally routable public IP registered with APNIC (the Regional Internet Registry for Asia-Pacific and India).
Most Indian 4G/5G mobile operators and many FTTH broadband plans operate dual-stack networks: they combine shared IPv4 Carrier-Grade NAT (CGNAT) pools with native 128-bit IPv6 global unicast prefixes. Because a CGNAT gateway shares a single public IPv4 address across many subscribers in a telecom circle, the public IPv4 seen by websites identifies your provider's regional gateway rather than your individual home.
Data Provenance & Accuracy Principles
- No fabricated precision: An IP lookup reveals the network operator (ASN), allocation block, and country/circle. It never reveals your street address, name, or subscriber identity.
- Authoritative protocols first: Registration data is resolved directly through IANA RFC 9224 RDAP bootstrap and public DNS-over-HTTPS.
- Stateless privacy: Lookups run on-demand without storing persistent visitor lookup histories. Read our Privacy Policy and Geolocation Accuracy Guide.

Frequently Asked Questions
Concise answers verified against IANA, APNIC, and IETF protocol standards
Why does my public IP address show a different city in India than where I live?
Indian broadband and 4G/5G mobile operators route subscriber traffic through regional PoP (Point of Presence) gateways and Carrier-Grade NAT (CGNAT) pools. Geolocation databases map the ISP gateway block rather than your physical home.
What is the difference between my public IP address and my Wi-Fi router IP?
Your Wi-Fi router assigns private RFC 1918 addresses (such as 192.168.1.x) to devices inside your local network. Your public IP address is the globally routable address assigned by your ISP to reach the wider internet.
Can websites see my name or physical street address from my public IP?
No. A public IP address only identifies your network operator (ISP/ASN), allocation block, and approximate country or telecom circle. Subscriber billing records remain private with the ISP.
