See the public IP address of your connection

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.

How to use

  1. Open the tool page and start the test to request the public IP address of your connection.
  2. Read the address shown in the result, which may be IPv4 or IPv6 depending on your network.
  3. Copy the address when you need to enter it in a form, firewall rule or support request.
  4. Turn your VPN on or off, then run the test again to compare the address seen before and after.
  5. Reload the page later if your provider uses dynamic addressing and you need to check for a change.

Example

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.

Limits and formats

Where processing happens

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.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my IP address sometimes change?

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.

Does this page show my local address?

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.

Is the result reliable when a VPN is active?

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.
