Public IP Address

Ever wonder what your public IP Address is? Well, check it out at www.myipaddress.com.

So, what is an IP address? It’s a little like a phone number or an email, but for your computer. When you send a request onto the Internet, your IP address serves as the “return address”. It can be useful to know your IP address for various on-line applications, like on-line gaming.

It should be noted that this is your public IP address, which can be different from you computer’s IP address if you are behind a proxy or a firewall. People with high-speed internet access often have a fixed IP address, which is sometimes a concern, and often, hence the firewall. Those using dial-up internet typically have a new IP address assigned to them each time they log in.

If you go to Danasoft.com, they can put a little thing on your webpage that will display your ipaddress, your ISP, the operating system you are using, and the type of browser you are using (FF or IE or … (etc))

I was using the IP address tool you mentioned on [this] page.

While it does the job overall, I found another tool to be a far better alternative. I thought other users might also appreciate it if you update your page.

It is a clear, ad free IP lookup tool: https://www.vpnmentor.com/ipinfo/

In hope I helped back,

Juan
