What Is My IP Address?

Types of IP Addresses

• Public IP: The address assigned to your network by your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
• Private IP: The internal address used within your home or office network.
• Static IP: An IP address that doesn’t change over time.
• Dynamic IP: An IP address that changes periodically, typically assigned by ISPs.

Why You Might Want to Hide or Change Your IP Address

• Protect your privacy and prevent tracking.
• Access geo-restricted content.
• Bypass censorship and firewalls.
• Enhance online security by reducing exposure to threats.

How to Change Your IP Address

1. Use a VPN: Encrypts your internet and gives you a new IP address.
2. Restart Your Router: Some ISPs assign dynamic IPs that change when rebooted.
3. Use a Proxy Server: Proxies mask your original IP address.
4. Use Tor Browser: Tor hides your IP by routing your traffic through private relays and nodes..
