IP address lookup

Paste any IPv4 or IPv6 address to see its approximate city, region and country, the ISP and organization behind it, its ASN, timezone and a map of the rough area. The lookup runs through our edge — no third-party trackers — and one tap looks up your own IP too.

Enter any public IPv4 or IPv6 address, then look up its location and network.

What is an IP address lookup?

An IP address lookup takes any public IPv4 or IPv6 address and reveals what can be known about it: an approximate location (city, region, country), the internet service provider and organization that own it, its Autonomous System Number (ASN), and timezone. It describes the network — not the person using it.

How to look up an IP address

  1. Type or paste a public IP address into the box above (or tap “Look up mine” to use your own).
  2. Press Look up — the location and network details load in a second or two.
  3. Read the city, region and country, the ISP, organization and ASN, plus the approximate point on the map.
  4. Copy any value, such as the latitude/longitude, with the button beside it.

How accurate is IP geolocation?

IP geolocation is good at the country and usually the city level, but it is never a precise street address — it reflects where the network is registered, which can be a regional hub. Accuracy drops further behind VPNs, proxies and mobile carriers. To find a precise position, use device GPS via my location or convert a known point with the coordinate converter.

Common uses for an IP lookup

Developers and admins use IP lookups to investigate suspicious traffic in server logs, verify that a CDN or DNS resolver is reachable from the right region, debug geo-routing, and identify the ASN behind an address. To check only your own connection, the what is my IP tool shows your public address and edge geolocation instantly.

Frequently asked questions

Can an IP address reveal my exact location?
No. An IP address maps to an approximate city or region where the network is registered, not a street address or a specific person. Accuracy is usually within the right metro area but can be far off behind VPNs, proxies or mobile networks. For a precise position use device GPS via my location.

What is an ASN?
An ASN (Autonomous System Number) identifies a network operator on the internet, written like AS15169. Each ISP or large organization controls one or more ASNs that route its IP ranges. The lookup shows the ASN so you can see which network an address belongs to, even when the city is generic.

Does this work for IPv6 addresses?
Yes. Paste a full IPv6 address such as 2606:4700:4700::1111 and the lookup returns the same location, ISP, organization and ASN details it shows for IPv4. The tool detects the format automatically — you don’t need to choose.

Why does the lookup say no data was found?
Private ranges (like 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x), loopback (127.0.0.1), reserved and unrouted addresses aren’t globally registered, so they have no public geolocation. Double-check the address is a real, public IP and try again.

Is this IP lookup free and private?
Yes — it’s free and needs no account. Lookups are proxied through our own edge so no third-party tracker sees the query, and the result is shaped to just the geolocation and network fields. To check your own connection, see what is my IP.

How do I find the location for a domain instead of an IP?
First resolve the domain to an IP (for example with a DNS or ping tool), then paste that IP here. Many sites sit behind CDNs, so the IP you get may belong to the CDN’s network rather than the origin server’s real location.
