What does this tool do?
The IP Lookup tool reveals the estimated geographic location (country, region, city) of an IPv4 or IPv6 address along with its internet service provider (ISP) and ASN. It is useful for site administrators curious about where a visitor comes from, users investigating a suspicious connection, and networking enthusiasts.

How an IP lookup works
The IP address you enter is sent to a geolocation database, which returns the matching record. The result can include the country, region, approximate city, time zone, the ISP, and the autonomous system number (ASN). Location data is based on how IP blocks are registered and allocated, so it is an estimate at the city or region level rather than street level, and it does not reveal a user's exact physical address.
Why location is not always exact
IP geolocation depends on how providers register their address blocks, and it can differ from the real location. Mobile carriers, corporate networks, VPNs, and proxies can make traffic appear to originate from a different region. For this reason it is best to treat the result as an indicator of which broad area and provider an IP belongs to, not as a precise address you can rely on for anything critical.
Frequently asked questions
How accurate is the location?
It is usually highly accurate at the country level, but city-level estimates can be off. VPNs, proxies, and mobile networks can mask the real location, so treat the result as an approximate indicator rather than a precise position.
Can I find someone's exact address?
No. An IP lookup only gives a region-level estimate and does not reveal a person's home or work address. The exact physical location can only be requested from an ISP through a legal process.
What is an ASN and why is it shown?
An ASN (Autonomous System Number) uniquely identifies the network operator that manages an IP block. It helps you understand which provider or organization an address belongs to.
