How did we find your IP address?
We are glad you asked! That gives us an opportunity to tell you how we could detect your IP address and you would learn as well.
We used a server side feature that seeks your IP address (remote host connecting to our server or this website) and then we show it back to you. It's that simple. Technically, when you call the check IP address page of this site, it has a function that gets your IP address and when the page is processed, the IP address which the function gets is shown to you in your browser.
Using this mechanism we can not detect the home network IP address of your computer but only the public IP address that your router or the device that connects to your ISP has been assigned.
