Question 1

What is my IP address?

Accepted Answer

Your IP address is the unique number assigned to your device by your internet service provider (ISP). It identifies your location and network to websites and servers you connect to. There are two types: IPv4 (e.g., 192.168.1.1) and IPv6 (e.g., 2001:0db8::1).

Question 2

Can I hide my real IP address?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can hide your real IP address by using a VPN or a proxy service. A proxy routes your traffic through a different server, masking your original IP. Proxy Poland's 4G mobile proxies replace your IP with a real Polish mobile carrier IP, which is much harder to detect and block than datacenter IPs.

Question 3

What does my IP address reveal about me?

Accepted Answer

Your IP address can reveal your approximate city, region, country, internet service provider (ISP), and organisation. It does not reveal your exact street address, name, or personal information. However, your ISP can link your IP to your account details.

Question 4

Why does my IP address show the wrong city?

Accepted Answer

IP geolocation databases are not always accurate. Your ISP may route traffic through servers in a different city than your actual location. Mobile carrier IPs (like those from Proxy Poland) are typically registered in Warsaw, Poland, even if the modem is physically located there.
