Your Current IP Address:

38.103.63.18

     A IP Address is the unique 32 bit number assigned to each computer connected to the Internet and used by the TCP/IP protocol to route packets of data to their destinations. The number is usually written in shorthand "dotted octet" notation in which the 32 bit address is grouped into four sets of 8 bits. Each of those eight-bit sets is converted into a decimal number, and the four resulting decimal numbers are written separated by dots.

     Most Internet addresses consist of a network portion and a node portion. The address for a host must be unique on the network. When you connect to a web server, for example, you may tell your browser to connect to the URL (uniform resource locator) www.mysite.com, but your computer ultimately has to translate the name to its IP address, 127.0.0.1, before the connection can be made.
