IP NETWORK DATA

IP Address Lookup

Find country, continent, ASN and network information.

How this test works

Public country, continent, and ASN data is retrieved from IPinfo Lite. Private and reserved addresses are rejected.

How to read the result

Country and network ownership are useful routing clues, but IP geolocation is approximate and should not be treated as a precise address.

Frequently asked questions

Can an IP address reveal my exact location?

No. IP geolocation is accurate at the country level and only approximate at the city level. It points at the network your connection exits through, which can be far from where you physically are, especially on mobile networks or behind a VPN.

What is an ASN?

An autonomous system number: a globally unique ID for a network under one administrative control, like AS13335 for Cloudflare. When you look up an IP, the ASN tells you exactly which network operates the address.

Why can I not look up a 192.168 address?

Addresses in 10.x, 172.16–31.x and 192.168.x are private and never routed on the public internet, so no global data exists for them. They only have meaning inside the local network that uses them.

How do I find who owns an IP address?

Look up its ASN and network organization, which name the operator, or run whois for the full registration record. That identifies the responsible network, though not the individual using a specific address at a given moment.

Is looking up an IP address legal?

Yes. IP routing and registration data is public by design, and querying it is how the internet's operators diagnose problems. What you cannot get from a lookup is private information about a person; the data describes a network, not an individual.
