WHAT'S MY IP ADDRESS

Your IP Address is a unique identifier on the internet, without it you would
neither be able to send or receive any information. Its like your home address
but online.
Your IP Address usually changes when disconnecting from the internet. It could
be that you turn off your computer, mobile phone or just simply switch on flight
mode on your phone. Later on when reconnecting you usually automatically get
assigned a new IP.
There are many ways to find out what your IP address is. Easiest is to type the
question “What’s my IP/whatsmyip.com” in the search bar of your favorite web
browser. We will clearly show you your IP on our front page. We will also try to
locate you based on your IP.


THIS IS HOW THE IP (INTERNET PROTOCOL) WORKS

Without being too technical its quite simple to explain the basics. All network
traffic is divided into smaller packages and then sent away with both a sender
and receiver IP address. The data is then reassembled when received.

Lost packages: Accidents happens, both in real life and on the internet.
Sometimes a network connection cuts off or a router is damaged. This usually
results in a lost package. Those packages that never arrive to the receiver are
considered to be a “lost package” after a set amount of time. When that occurs
the sender(computer) just simply sends out a new copy of that package with a
little bit of help by something called TCP/IP.




WHY YOU MIGHT NEED TO KNOW YOUR IP

One of many reason could be that you are a developer and are trying to sort out
a network problem when communicating with your server. That’s my own most common
reason, but it could also be when needing to filter out suspicious network
traffic or when you need to communicate with a support and identify yourself to
solve the reason for something not working on the internet.


WHY YOU WOULD NEED TO TRACE AN IP

One of many reason could be that you like to verify that the one you are
communicating with is the one he says he is. For example; if you know that your
friend is located in USA then you can assume that his or hers IP should
originate from USA. It would be a big warning sign if the IP originated from
China or Russia.
