Track and locate IP addresses with detailed geographic information.
Track and locate IP addresses with detailed geographic and ISP information. Discover the location, internet service provider, and network details behind any IP address. Perfect for cybersecurity professionals, network administrators, researchers, and digital marketers.
An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a unique numerical label assigned to each device connected to a network. IP addresses serve two main functions: identifying the host or network interface and providing the location of the host in the network. Every device that connects to the internet has an IP address.
| Type | Version | Format | Total Addresses | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IPv4 | Version 4 | XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX | 4.3 billion | 192.168.1.1 |
| IPv6 | Version 6 | Hexadecimal (8 groups) | 340 undecillion | 2001:0db8:85a3:0000 |
| Public IP | Both | Varies | Publicly routable | 8.8.8.8 |
| Private IP | Both | Varies | Not publicly routable | 192.168.x.x |
| Information | Description | Accuracy | Use Cases |
|---|---|---|---|
| Country | Nation where IP is registered | Very High (99%+) | Geo-targeting, compliance, security |
| Region/State | Specific region or state | High (95%+) | Regional analysis, marketing |
| City | City location | Medium (75-90%) | Local targeting, investigations |
| ISP | Internet Service Provider | Very High (99%+) | Network analysis, security |
| Latitude/Longitude | GPS coordinates | Low-Medium (varies) | Approximate mapping |
| Timezone | Time zone of location | High (95%+) | Scheduling, communication |
| Range | Type | Use | Traceable |
|---|---|---|---|
| 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 | Private | Home/office networks | No (not public) |
| 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 | Private | Large networks | No (not public) |
| 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 | Private | Corporate networks | No (not public) |
| 127.0.0.1 | Localhost | Local machine only | No (local) |
Accuracy varies: country level is typically 99%+, city level is 75-90%, and exact coordinates are rough estimates. IP geolocation uses database mapping of IP ranges to locations, not GPS data. Accuracy depends on data freshness and ISP assignment methods.
IP addresses show approximate geographic location (city/region level), not exact addresses. You cannot identify a specific person from an IP alone. ISPs keep detailed subscriber records but require legal warrants to access.
Public IPs are globally unique and internet-accessible. Private IPs (192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, 172.16-31.x.x) are for internal networks only. Only public IPs are traceable on the public internet.
Yes, tracking publicly accessible IP addresses is legal. However, using this information to identify, harass, or harm individuals may violate laws. Always respect privacy and use IP data legally and ethically.
