Dynamic vs Static IP Addresses

A dynamic IP changes periodically. A static IP remains assigned for a longer period.

Dynamic IPs

Most home broadband connections use dynamic addressing. Your public IP may change after rebooting your router or when your ISP refreshes leases.

Static IPs

Business connections, servers, and some premium residential plans may use static IPs for reliable inbound access.

Why this matters for IPLocator

If you revisit IPLocator over time, your detected IP may change even if your location appears similar.
