Frequently Asked Questions
What is my IP address?
Your public IP address is assigned by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and identifies your connection on the internet. This page detects it automatically — both IPv4 (e.g. 93.184.216.34) and IPv6 (e.g. 2606:2800::1) if your network supports it.
What is the difference between IPv4 and IPv6?
IPv4 uses 32-bit addresses (e.g. 93.184.216.34) and supports ~4.3 billion unique addresses. IPv6 uses 128-bit addresses and supports virtually unlimited devices. Most modern networks are dual-stack, meaning they support both.
Is my IP address location accurate?
Country-level geolocation is detected via a local GeoLite2 database. If you use a VPN or proxy, you will see the location of that server instead of your real location. City-level precision is not provided.
Does this site store my IP address?
No cookies, no tracking pixels, no user profiles. Minimal server logs (IP, country, user-agent) are written for aggregate statistics and troubleshooting — the same as any standard web server. Logs are not sold or shared.
How do I check my IP from the terminal?
Run curl -s https://whatsmyip.haasje.net — CLI tools like curl and wget automatically receive a plain-text IP. For full JSON output use curl -s https://whatsmyip.haasje.net/json.
Why does my IP address keep changing?
Most home ISPs assign dynamic IP addresses that change when your router reconnects. Businesses and servers typically have static IPs. Mobile networks change your IP frequently as you switch between cell towers.
