You can find a link to our recommended IP Address lookup tool below. This tool is free to use and will tell you your IP address, or Internet Protocol Address to give it the full name.
You might need your IP address information when talking to a support desk or helpline or if you are setting up new equipment.
Your IP address is like a full address for your device or computer. The unique nature of IP addresses makes it possible in many situations to track which computer, and by extension, which person, has sent a message or engaged in some other activity on the Internet. This information has been used by law enforcement authorities to identify criminal suspects; however, dynamically-assigned IP addresses can make this difficult.
