An IP address (Internet Protocol address) is a unique number assigned to every device connected to the internet. It allows devices to communicate with each other by identifying their network location.
There are two types of IP addresses: IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 is the most common and looks like 192.168.1.1, while IPv6 is newer and provides a much larger address space.
Your IP address can reveal information such as your approximate location, internet service provider (ISP), and more. This tool from Parcoil helps you quickly see your public IP and related connection details.
