Frequently Asked Questions
An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a unique numerical identifier assigned to every device connected to the internet. It's like a digital address that allows devices to communicate with each other and enables websites to know where to send the data you request.
IPv4 uses 32-bit addresses (like 192.168.1.1) allowing for about 4.3 billion unique addresses. IPv6 uses 128-bit addresses (like 2001:0db8:85a3::8a2e:0370:7334) allowing for virtually unlimited addresses. IPv6 was created because we're running out of IPv4 addresses.
IP geolocation is typically accurate at the country level (95-99%) and city level (50-80%). The accuracy varies based on the ISP and whether the IP is residential or from a data center. VPNs and proxies can make location data inaccurate as they mask the true origin.
Yes, you can mask your IP address using a VPN (Virtual Private Network), proxy server, or Tor browser. These tools route your internet traffic through different servers, making it appear as if you're connecting from a different location.
Most home internet connections use dynamic IP addresses, which can change periodically when your router reconnects or your ISP reassigns addresses. Businesses often use static IP addresses that don't change. Your IP also changes when you connect to different networks (home, work, mobile data).
