IP address FAQ
Common questions about public IPs
A public IP address is the internet-facing address used by your network when connecting to websites and online services. It may belong directly to your device, router, mobile provider, VPN or proxy service.
Many internet providers assign dynamic IP addresses that can change after reconnecting, restarting a router or moving between networks. VPNs and mobile networks can also present a different public IP.
No. This tool shows the public address visible to the Red Server Host website. Private addresses such as 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x are normally used only inside a local network.
An IP address may indicate an approximate region or internet provider, but it does not normally reveal an exact street address to ordinary websites. Only the provider can reliably associate an address with a subscriber at a specific time.
Yes. When a VPN is active, websites normally see the VPN server’s public IP instead of the public IP assigned by your internet provider.
