Understanding IP Addresses

Internet Protocol, or IP, is a number for your network.

Two types matter for this page.

Public IP

This address faces the internet and identifies your connection.

Websites and apps see this value when you visit them.

The tool shows it at the top of the results box.

Local or router IP

This address lives on your home or office network.

It opens your router admin page in a browser.

It differs from the public IP shown above.

Common router addresses

• 192.168.1.1
• 192.168.0.1
• 10.0.0.1
