Qual é o meu endereço IP?

There are many ways to Hide Your IP location. Beyond supposedly anonymous proxies and their websites promising to "change my IP" or "hide my location," the best and safest option is to install a VPN service like Private Internet Access, which allows you to change your IP address for a cost as low as $2.33/mo. What’s better yet is that using PIA to hide your IP doesn’t affect speed tests at all because PIA offers unlimited bandwidth for your hidden traffic. Private Internet Access also uses their own DNS servers so you can rest assured that you will pass any DNS leak tests. In summary, using Private Internet Access will hide your IP address from your ISP and their DNS servers.

IP address stands for Internet Protocol address. An IP address is a numerical address assigned to devices on computer networks that connect to the internet using the widely popular Internet Protocol. An IP address is used for two main things in today’s internet:

Host or network interface identification and location addressing. IP addresses are used in reverse DNS lookups, also known as hostname lookups to match a query IP address with a target domain name’s IP.

Don’t forget, an IP address can reveal your location.

An IPv4 address is a 32-bit number that uniquely identifies a device to enable it to connect to the internet. An IPv4 address is typically written in decimal digits, formatted as four 8-bit fields that are separated by periods. An example would be: 192.0.0.1.

An IPv6 address uses a 128-bit number to serve a similar function to IPv4 addresses, they provide a unique number - or address - used by internet-connected devices to interact. IPv6 is the sixth revision to the Internet Protocol which will eventually replace IPv4. An example would be: 2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334.

Both IPv4 addresses and IPv6 addresses do the same thing: they are used to identify machines connected to a network. The difference between IPv4 and IPv6 is simply that IPv4 uses a 32-bit address whereas IPv6 uses a 128-bit address.

The biggest thing to consider in IPv4 vs IPv6 addresses is the amount of addressable addresses that all internet connected devices need to share. IPv4 can support around 4.29 billion IP addresses; in contrast, IPv6 can support 340 undecillion IP addresses.

Android

• Navigate to Settings > About device > Status then scroll down. There, you’ll be able to see your Android phone’s public IP address along with other information such as MAC address.

iPhone

• Navigate to Settings > WiFi then tap on the information icon next to the network you are connected to. There, you’ll be able to see your iPhone’s IP address.

Your local IP, also known as your private IP address, is the non public IP address assigned to your device by your router. The biggest thing to keep in mind with public vs private ip addresses is that the public (global) IP address is what the internet sees and the private IP address is what your router sees.

Because the local IP is used to communicate between your device and the router, and then the public IP address is used to communicate with the wider internet, your local IP address is private. Your local IP will be somewhere in the following reserved IP address ranges.

• 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255
• 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255
• 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255

It is often hard to identify which IP address is your public IP address. Whether you’re doing a simple proxy check on your anonymous proxy or if you want to know the IP address of your VPN location, the quickest way to know your public IP address for sure is to visit a website that offers basic IP tools such as this What’s my IP page.

You can use your computer’s built in IP lookup tool, ipconfig/Ifconfig, to look up IP information

1. Open a Command Prompt or Terminal window.
1. (Windows) Press (Windows key) + R, type "cmd" in the text field, then press Enter to open a new Command Prompt window.
2. (Mac) Press Command + Space, type "Terminal" in the search bar, then click the Terminal icon to open a new Terminal window
3. (Linux) Press Ctrl + Alt + T to open a new Terminal window
2. Run "ipconfig" (Windows) or "Ifconfig" (Mac and Linux)
1. Type "ipconfig" or "Ifconfig" and press Enter.
3. Find your IP Address in the listed data. Your IP address location may be next to "Ethernet adapter," "Local Area Connection," or "Wireless Network Connection."

You can use your computer’s built in IP lookup tool, ipconfig/Ifconfig, to find IP information about your WiFi router

1. Open a Command Prompt or Terminal window.
1. (Windows) Press (Windows key) + R, type "cmd" in the text field, then press Enter to open a new Command Prompt window.
2. (Mac) Press Command + Space, type "Terminal" in the search bar, then click the Terminal icon to open a new Terminal window
3. (Linux) Press Ctrl + Alt + T to open a new Terminal window
2. Run "ipconfig" (Windows) or "Ifconfig" (Mac and Linux)
1. Type "ipconfig" or "Ifconfig" and press Enter.
3. Find your IP Address in the listed data. Your WiFi router IP address location will be under "Default Gateway."

Windows

• Select Settings from the Start menu
• Select the Network & Internet icon in Settings
• Depending on whether you’re using Ethernet or WiFi, select Ethernet or WiFi in the left side menu to select your network connection
• Finally, your IP address will appear next to "IPv4 Address"

Mac

• Select System Preferences from the Apple menu
• Select Network from the View menu
• Depending on whether you’re using Airport, Ethernet or WiFi, select Airport, Ethernet, or WiFi in the left side menu to select your network connection
• Finally, your IP address will appear next to "Status"

Linux

• Select the network connection icon (sometimes a WiFi icon) in your toolbar
• On the dropdown menu, click Connection Information
• Finally, your IP address will appear next to "IP address"

1. Open a Command Prompt or Terminal window.
1. (Windows) Press (Windows key) + R, type "cmd" in the text field, then press Enter to open a new Command Prompt window.
2. (Mac) Press Command + Space, type "Terminal" in the search bar, then click the Terminal icon to open a new Terminal window
3. (Linux) Press Ctrl + Alt + T to open a new Terminal window
2. Run "ipconfig" (Windows) or "Ifconfig" (Mac and Linux)
1. Type "ipconfig" or "Ifconfig" and press Enter.
3. Find the IP Address of your access point in the listed data. Your IP address location will be next to "Ethernet adapter Ethernet" or "Wireless LAN adapter Wi-Fi" in the name. Usually, you only see one access point, but computers that have multiple ethernet or WiFi cards will see more sets of IP information.

You can locate your IP address by looking for a WiFi network connection icon or your device’s Control Panel, System Preferences, or Settings. On Windows, the IP address is located in the "Network and Sharing Center" in the Control Panel. On Mac, the IP address is located in the "Network" option in System Preferences. On Linux, the IP address is located under "Connection Information" when you right click your network connection icon.

Smartphones are just like any other device on the internet, they must have an IP address to connect to the internet in order to send and receive internet traffic. Almost all modern smartphones are capable of using IPv6 addresses. The IP address is either assigned by the cell towers in the carrier's network, or by the network which the smartphone is connected to. It’s important to note that if your smartphone is using cell data to connect to the internet, the carrier knows both your IP address and location. If connected to a WiFi network, your phone actually has two IP addresses, one is your global address (public IPs) while the other is your local address (private IPs).

You can use your computer’s built in network-wide IP lookup tool, arp, to look up IP information on recently contacted devices on your private network.

1. Open a Command Prompt window.
1. (Windows) Press (Windows key) + R, type "cmd" in the text field, then press Enter to open a new Command Prompt window.
2. (Mac) Press Command + Space, type "Terminal" in the search bar, then click the Terminal icon to open a new Terminal window
3. (Linux) Press Ctrl + Alt + T to open a new Terminal window
2. Run "arp -a" (Windows) or "arp -e" (Mac and Linux)
1. Type "arp -a" or "arp -e" and press Enter.
3. It will list the connected unique IP addresses on your private network. If the list doesn’t look up to date, ping your device’s IP address to refresh.
