What does this mean?
The IP address above is what every website you visit sees as the source of your traffic โ unless you are routing through a proxy or VPN. If the IP and location match where you are sitting, you are connecting directly. If they do not, something between you and the internet (a proxy, VPN, corporate gateway, or mobile carrier) is masking your real connection.
The location is an estimate. IP geolocation is accurate to country roughly 95% of the time, accurate to city around 70%, and can be off by hundreds of miles for mobile IPs or VPN exit nodes.
Common uses
- Confirming a proxy is active โ if you set up a proxy and this page still shows your real IP, the proxy is not in the request path.
- Whitelisting an IP for proxy auth โ copy the address above into your EZProxies control panel when configuring IP-whitelist authentication.
- Verifying VPN connection โ the IP and country should change after you connect to a VPN; if they do not, the VPN is leaking.
- Debugging geo-restricted access โ if a service is not loading, check whether you are coming from a country it serves.
Want a different IP?
The simplest way to appear from a different country is through a proxy. USA private proxies, Spanish proxies, and Italian proxies all give you a static IP in the target country with instant activation.
