# What is my IP address > Find your public IP address, its network owner, country and city, and whether its timezone matches your browser clock — a quick consistency check. Source: https://mosaicbrowser.com/tools/what-is-my-ip ## What is my IP address? Your public IP is the address the internet sees for your connection. This page reads it the moment it loads, with the network that owns it, the country and city it maps to, and a quick check of whether its timezone agrees with your browser clock. Read straight from your own request to our server. Nothing is stored. **What we see.** This is only your own request echoed back — the address and location your connection already shows any site. We keep no record of it. IP geolocation places the network, not you, so the city is often approximate. ## Your address, and what it gives away An IP address is handed out by your network — a home router, a mobile carrier, or a proxy or VPN you route through. On its own it is not your name, but it places you on a network and in a rough location, and it is the first thing a site compares against everything else your browser says. ### IP and version The public IPv4 or IPv6 address. IPv6 is longer and increasingly common on mobile and fibre; a site can read either. ### ASN and network owner The autonomous system number and the organisation behind it — your ISP, a hosting company, or a proxy provider. A datacentre owner beside a “home” story is a common tell. ### Country and city Where the address is registered. The country is usually right; the city can be a region off, especially on a VPN or mobile network. ### Timezone The timezone your IP’s location implies. Compared with your browser clock below — if they disagree, a site sees two places. ### TLS and protocol The TLS version and HTTP protocol your browser negotiated. Part of what a [TLS fingerprint](https://mosaicbrowser.com/tools/tls-fingerprint) captures. ### Connection latency The round-trip time the edge measured to you, when available — a rough sense of distance and route. ## If the location or timezone is wrong If this page shows a country you are not browsing as, your proxy or VPN is working — that is the point. The trap is a half-match: an IP in one country and a browser clock in another. Set your timezone and language to match the exit you present, or the mismatch does the identifying for you. The [timezone and IP checker](https://mosaicbrowser.com/tools/timezone-ip-checker) shows the gap exactly. 1. **Open the page.** The page asks our server for the IP your request came from and the location the network maps it to. 2. **Read your address.** You get the public IPv4 or IPv6, the ASN and the network owner, the country and city, the connection’s TLS version and HTTP protocol. 3. **Check the match.** The tool compares the IP’s timezone with your browser’s clock and tells you whether a site comparing them would see one place or two. ### What is my IP address? It is the public address the internet sees for your connection — your home or office router, your mobile carrier, or the proxy or VPN you route through. This page shows it along with the network owner, country and city your address maps to. ### Why does the location look wrong? IP geolocation is approximate: it places the network, not you, and can be a city or a country off, especially on mobile or a VPN. The country is usually right; the city often is not. ### What is the timezone check for? Half of what a consistency scanner reads is whether your IP’s location agrees with your browser clock. If your IP is in New York and your clock is set to Vienna, a site comparing them sees two places. Mosaic sets each profile’s timezone to match its exit. ## Every account its own browser.
