What is my IP address?

Your public IP address is the address your connection presents to websites and services on the internet.

Why do I only see IPv4 or IPv6?

Many networks are still IPv4-only. Some VPNs, relays, or privacy features also hide or disable IPv6.

Yes. WhenIP can run a real server-side ping to your public IP address using safe, rate-limited server-side diagnostics.
