IP Lookup Tool

This IP Lookup tool determines where an IP address is located. The outcomes provide a wealth of information. City, state/region, postal/zip code, country name, ISP, and time zone are among the details. As a result, several authorities utilize this data to determine who owns an IPv4 or IPv6 address.

Results of IP Address Location

It is critical to remember that no IP lookup tool is completely accurate. The results of IP location lookups are displayed from multiple separate IP location databases, and each database reports differently. The nation, region, and city are frequently congruent with the IP's real physical location.

Why is the status of my IP address changing?

There are several more reasons why geolocation data returns are not always correct. Among the factors are:

1. The location where the IP address was assigned
2. The location of the controlling agency
3. Whether the user is using a proxy or a VPN
4. Whether or if the connection is cellular

For example, if you are in the United States and the IP address's governing agency is in Canada, the IP address location lookup data may display Canada as the IP location. It is fairly unusual to encounter a Canadian IP address while searching for an IP address in the northern United States on a mobile device.

Results for IP Addresses

When utilizing an IP address lookup tool, people frequently believe they will locate the actual location of an IP address. This is absolutely not the case. There is no database that can reveal the actual physical address of an IP address location. At best, you'll obtain the specific city where the IP user is situated.

An IP's specific physical address can only be provided by the Internet Service Provider (ISP). ISPs often keep logs of who was allocated an IP address at any given moment. The length of time an ISP maintains these records is normally limited. However, the ISP is unlikely to pass up any information without a police order or other legal paperwork.

If you get an inappropriate or fraudulent email, don't expect your ISP to provide you with the postal address of the IP address's owner. Instead, hand over the communications to the authorities and let them handle it.

Update Your IP Address

If you discover that your IP geolocation information is wrong, you may always contact any of our IP location data suppliers and request a correction.

Conclusion

Finally, if you get a harassing or potentially fraudulent communication, the best thing you can do is submit a complaint with the police or your ISP. Then, transmit any pertinent details from the dubious message.
