WHAT IS MY IP ADDRESS / WHATSMYIP?

WhatsMyIP? If you are asking yourself this question, you can see the answer
above, alongside a lot of other exposed information about you. If you want to
read more about IP addresses, and what information is exposed, see below. We
also have tools that check for proxies and IPv6.


MY IP ADDRESS, THE WHAT ?

The term ‘IP’ stands for Internet Protocol. An IP Address is given to each
device connected to the Internet which will then allow that device to send and
receive data from other devices. This IP is your online fingerprint, it can be
used to track you by any entity online. “Think
ISP/Websites/Hackers/Government..etc”.

Some of the uses of IPs online are :

 * * Offer you services or advertisements based on your location
   * Block you from accessing videos or other services based on your location.
     I.e. Netflix, Hulu, Dazn and DSTV.
   * Ban you from sites and forums
   * Apart from that it also allows hackers to attack your devices directly as
     they do know on which door to knock.
   * Allows your ISP to throttle your Internet speed
   * Allows for an entity “hacker, government,ISP”. To eavesdrop on your
     traffic.
   * Allows for law enforcement to know your exact address. In general, only
     your overall area is known.  If legal action against your is in the run, a
     court order will force your IP to report your exact physical/home address.

What’s My IP Address Location?

 

Having said the above, if you wish to hide your true identity and encrypt your
traffic. Read on below.


DOES MY IP ADDRESS SHOW MY EXACT PHYSICAL LOCATION?

Before reading on I want to make sure this part is properly covered. By looking
at your IP address, one can get a general idea of your geographical location,
this narrows the location down to the city name. Yet your home address can not
be pinpointed yet.  However,  if legal action against you is in the run, your
ISP might be legally required to report your exact address. Your ISP can do that
since they do have a database that connects every IP to the subscribers home
address. Your IP address might be periodically changed by your ISP. However, in
the case of a court order the ISP checks the IP change/assignment log to
determine to whom the IP was assigned at the time an illegal/legal action took
place.


CHANGE/HIDE MY IP ADDRESS, THE WHY ?

To hide your true identity and online location, you have to change your IP
address. If you want to take this to the next level you encrypt your traffic as
well. The benefits are mainly the opposite of what is mentioned above. But I
will state this once more :

 * * Traffic encryption prevents ANYONE from eavesdropping on your traffic
   * Your physical location will be hidden. Your IP address basically tags your
     location.
   * You can unblock websites that ban you
   * You can bypass geo-restrictions some websites impose to restriction access
     to content. For example Netflix USA has the largest content of all Netflix
     libraries. That is more than 12000 movies/series. If you are in the UK for
     example you only have 4000 movies/series to choose from. Given you are
     paying the same price as an USA user you might think this is not fair. If
     you change your IP to a USA address you can access all 12000+ movies on
     Netflix USA on any of your devices. Then there are other free channel you
     can get access to : BBC IPlayer, iTV, ZDF to mention a few.
   * Most importantly, this goes a long way of keeping you anonymous online.

Looking at the What and Why, it is pretty obvious that changing your IP address
and encrypting your traffic has many benefits. The implementing is actually not
as hard as you might think. It can boil down to a 3 click process, see the How
below.

HIDING MY IP ADDRESS, THE HOW ?

If you want to hide the information shown above, there are several tools that
you can deploy to hide or change your IP address. Tor, VPN, proxies, and Smart
DNS are the main methods used to spoof online location. I will explain what each
of those is below. But I can tell you downright that VPN is the easiest and best
solution.


VPN

VPN means ‘virtual private network’. It is used by regular users, companies and
large corporations to protect private data. When you are connected to a VPN
server, all your traffic is encrypted, your real IP address, your address and
your private information including what sites you are visiting is hidden. The
websites you visit will only see the IP address of the VPN server you are
connected to.

In short :

 1. Your traffic is encrypted from your device all the way to the VPN server,
    this prevents any eavesdropping, tracing or hacking.
 2. When you connect to a VPN you can choose what location you want to use. This
    does not only change your IP address, it also provides the additional
    benefit of masking your location. This is great since you can now access
    content that was restricted. Think :
    1. Your address/identity is hidden since your new IP does not reveal the
       same information as the one you see in our information box above. You
       might be physically in Germany, but your new IP makes it look as if you
       are in the United States.
    2. More content for subscriptions you already have. I.e Netflix
    3. Free content, think BBC Iplayer
    4. Cheaper content. Think DSTV/DAZN for example, both of which are
       sports/entertainment sites that can provide you with the same content at
       a cheaper price than what you are paying to your local cable provider.
 3. Android/Iphone/Mac/Windows and Amazon Firestick have apps that make VPN easy
    to use. For other devices you can normally do a manual setup “This sounds
    harder than it really is”

At whatismyip.network we do regularly test and review VPN providers. Our VPN
review procedure can be read here. For the last 12 months ExpressVPN has always
come on top of results

Again there is a lot to gain, I did say it is a three step process. It is time
for truth or dare, I choose truth :

Here’s how to combine the WHAT WHY HOW:

 1. 1. Step numero uno : Subscribe to a credible VPN service provider. According
       to market rankings, ExpressVPN is the best option “fastest, most server
       locations, 30 day money back guarantee, live chat support and support for
       all devices”.
    2. Step numero duo : Download the app for your device. Let’s assume an
       Iphone is in play, go to the app-store and download the app.
    3. Last step. Logon to the application, choose a VPN server and click
       connect.

That is it, a 3 step process, subscribe, download and connect. At this point,
you are connected to a VPN server. Your IP is changed, your geo location is
masked and your traffic is encrypted.  You can double check that your location
is masked using this page, check what your IP address and location is in the top
of this page. Connect to a VPN server and make sure your IP address and location
has changed.

Depending on the VPN server you choose to connect to, you get to switch your
online location to almost any country you like. You can use this process with
other reputable VPNs as well. Check them out in the table below.

Below are some more honorable mentions, but nothing beats VPN.


TOR

Tor is short for The Onion Browser. When using the Tor Browser, your traffic is
sent through different Tor servers making it very difficult to trace your online
activity. In other words, you can browse the web anonymously. Tor however has a
huge speed hit.


PROXIES

A proxy server is an intermediary between your computer and the Internet. When
connected to a proxy server, proxy requests to websites and other servers on the
Internet for you. This process has multiple benefits including the ability to
unblock websites that would usually be banned in your region. The important part
to note here is that there are many free proxies, running a proxy is quite
costly, so you have to wonder how do they cover the costs.


SMART DNS

Smart DNS essentially is a proxy service. While Smart DNS does not change your
IP address like VPN, it still allows you to unblock and access geo-restricted
channels and websites that block you based on your location. This is a good
thing if you do not want all of your traffic to change it’s location.  Smart DNS
used to be a service you purchase independently, these days most VPN providers
do offer Smart DNS as part of their subscriptions at no further cost.


YOUR IP ADDRESS, LET’S BOIL IT DOWN.

Your IP Address does expose more information than one might expect,  and the
same is true about the risks you face . If you want to hide your true
identity, online location and encrypt your traffic a VPN is what you need. I
would be more than happy to provide more information if you need it,  use the
comments section below for your inquiries.

       Hello Nirvana. As you mentioned, the IP address you’re seeing is that of
       Google’s Gmail servers. It would be quite difficult to determine the
       actual IP address of the sender.

     I’ve tried a few providers and I must say that half (that’s 3) of them
     leaked my IP at least once a month. Lately I’m sticking to Surfshark which
     I use for almost 4 months, have not seen any leaks yet. I hope they keep it
     this way. Any thoughts about them from your side?
