For anyone checking a connection, testing a VPN or troubleshooting remote access, the current public IP address appears immediately.
Show the public IP address used by your connection, then copy it when checking a VPN, filling in a configuration or troubleshooting access.
A user wonders why a remote service behaves differently from home. They run the test, note the public address, enable their VPN and check again to see whether the visible address changes.
The request is made by the YOORfree server, which checks the connection to determine the public address visible online. No file is uploaded. The returned value reflects what that server observes during the request, and you can copy it for your own records.
Many providers assign a temporary address that can change after a reconnection or after some time. If you see a new value, compare the time of the test with your connection status or your VPN session.
No. It displays the public address used to reach the internet. A local address behind a router is not visible from outside and therefore does not appear in this result.
With a VPN, the test usually shows the VPN exit address instead of your access provider's address. That helps confirm the tunnel is active, but it does not prove that every application is using it.
