FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q1.What is my IP address?
Your IP address is a unique numerical label assigned to your device by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). It identifies your device on the internet and is used to route traffic to you.
Q2.What is the difference between IPv4 and IPv6?
IPv4 uses 32-bit addresses (e.g., 192.168.1.1), supporting ~4.3 billion addresses. IPv6 uses 128-bit addresses (e.g., 2001:db8::1), supporting a virtually unlimited number of devices.
Q3.Can websites see my real IP address?
Yes — every website you visit receives your IP address unless you use a VPN or proxy. Your IP can be used to roughly determine your location and ISP.
Q4.Does ToolForge store my IP address?
No. ToolForge performs a real-time lookup and returns the result to your browser. Nothing is logged or stored.
Q5.What is a VPN and will it hide my IP?
A VPN (Virtual Private Network) routes your traffic through a server in another location, masking your real IP. When using a VPN, this tool will show the VPN server's IP and location instead.
