    What Is an IP Address?

    The Basics

    An IP address is a unique numerical label used to identify a device on a network.

    Public vs Private

    Public IPs are visible on the internet. Private IPs are used only inside your home network.

    IPv4 vs IPv6

    IPv4 is older and limited. IPv6 provides a vastly larger address space.

    Privacy

    Websites can estimate your location from your IP. VPNs help mask it.
