IP Address Lookup

Professional IP Geolocation & Network Intelligence

IP addresses act as the digital return addresses for internet traffic. Our IP Address Lookup Tool queries global WHOIS and geolocation databases to interpret these numbers, converting them into actionable intelligence. This tool is essential for network administrators, cybersecurity analysts, and digital marketers who need to verify traffic sources or troubleshoot connectivity.

By inputting an IPv4 or IPv6 address, you gain immediate access to technical registration data. This includes the registered ISP (Internet Service Provider), the ASN (Autonomous System Number) controlling the routing, and the approximate physical location (down to the city level).

How to Interpret IP Data

1. Network Provider (ISP): Identifies the company owning the infrastructure (e.g., Comcast, Amazon AWS). This helps distinguish between residential users and data center traffic.
2. Geolocation: Provides the estimated physical location. While not GPS-precise, it reliably identifies the country, region, and city for content targeting or fraud prevention.
3. Timezone & Coordinates: useful for configuring servers or localizing content delivery based on user location.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find the location of an IP address?

Simply paste the IP address into the input field above and click "Lookup." Our system queries real-time geolocation databases to return the country, state, city, and even the ISP associated with that specific IP address.

What information can I get from an IP address lookup?

You can retrieve the registered Location (Country/City/ZIP), the Internet Service Provider (ISP), the Organization (ASN), Timezone data, and approximate Latitude/Longitude coordinates.

Can I trace someone's exact location with their IP address?

No. IP geolocation identifies the location of the ISP's routing node, not a specific house or street address. It is generally accurate to the city or zip code level but cannot pinpoint a physical doorstep due to privacy architecture.

Is it legal to lookup someone's IP address?

Yes. IP addresses are public routing information necessary for the internet to function. Looking up the registration details of an IP is a standard procedure for network analysis and is completely legal.

How accurate is IP address geolocation?

Accuracy varies by connection type. Fixed broadband (Home WiFi) is typically accurate to the city level (95%+). Mobile data IPs are less precise as they route traffic through central towers that may be miles away from the user.
