Local IP

Find my local IP address

Automatic detection depends on browser protections.

Amonip tries a local detection without third-party servers. If the browser masks the address, the page explains it clearly and points you to the right device guide.

What is a local IP address?

A local, or private, IP address identifies your device inside your home or office network. It is not routable on the internet and stays within your local network.

Reserved private ranges

  • 10.0.0.0/8
  • 172.16.0.0/12
  • 192.168.0.0/16
  • 169.254.0.0/16 for link-local addressing

Why can Amonip not see my local IP?

The browser can hide this data to protect your privacy. On Chrome and Android, WebRTC candidates can be replaced by a temporary mDNS name instead of a readable private address.

When that happens, Amonip must not invent an address. The page finishes the diagnostic and sends you to the guide for your device.

Frequently asked questions

Does Amonip store my local IP address?

No. Detection happens in the browser and nothing is saved server-side.

Why does the page show a masked address?

The browser exposed a network candidate without revealing a readable private address. That is normal protection.

What should I do if nothing appears?

Use the guide for your device to find the local address in the network settings.
