IP Address Information

An IP address (Internet Protocol address) is a unique number for each device connected to the internet, like your computer or tablet. It helps identify your device and tells the internet where to send information.

• Loading Internet Service Provider information… Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) is the company that gives you internet access.
• Loading location information… This shows where you are based on your IP address. It’s like your online address!
• Loading your IPv4 Address… IPv4 is made up of four sets of numbers separated by dots, like 192.168.1.1. It can handle about 4 billion unique addresses, but that’s not enough for all the devices out there!
• Loading your IPv6 Address… IPv6 is longer and has eight groups of numbers and letters, like 2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334. It can support way more devices, which is super important as more people go online.
• Loading network type… The network type tells you if your connection is public or private. Public means anyone can join, while private is more secure and only for you and your friends.
