An IP lookup checks public IP data to estimate the network owner and approximate location of an address. This can include ISP, ASN, city, state, country, postal code, and time zone.
What is IP lookup used for?
IP lookup is useful for troubleshooting internet connections, checking whether a VPN or proxy is visible, verifying your public IP, and understanding which network is handling your traffic.
Common IP lookup fields
The internet service provider or network organization behind the IP address.
The Autonomous System Number that identifies the network route owner.
Approximate city, state, country, postal code, and time zone.
Some providers can identify whether an IP looks like a VPN, proxy, Tor, relay, or hosting network.
Accuracy note
IP location is not GPS. It is based on public routing and geolocation databases, so results may point to your ISP, mobile carrier, VPN, or proxy exit location. You can compare this page with the What is my IP guide for more context.
