Have you ever wondered what your IP address is and why it’s important? An IP address (Internet Protocol address) is like your digital home address. It’s a unique identifier assigned to your device when you connect to the internet. It allows websites, online services, and other devices to find and communicate with your device.

At https://ip.osob.de/, we provide a simple and quick way to check both your IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Whether you're troubleshooting network issues, verifying your IP for security reasons, or simply curious, our tool gives you all the details you need instantly.

What’s the Difference Between IPv4 and IPv6?

• IPv4: This is the most common type of IP address, consisting of four sets of numbers separated by periods (e.g., 192.168.0.1). It’s been around since the early days of the internet, but with the growth of connected devices, available IPv4 addresses are becoming scarce.
• IPv6: To address the shortage, IPv6 was introduced. It has a much larger address space and looks different from IPv4, using colons and hexadecimal numbers (e.g., 2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334). Many newer devices and networks now use IPv6.
