Detailed IP and Location Information Tool
IP Geolocator is a Firefox extension designed for users seeking detailed insights into their IP addresses and geographical locations. This free tool displays both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, alongside geolocation data, providing a comprehensive view of your current network status. A unique feature includes a badge that reflects the current country, which updates every three seconds, allowing users to monitor for any unexpected changes, particularly useful for those utilizing VPNs or proxies. Additionally, users receive desktop notifications when their IP addresses change, an option that can be disabled in the settings for a more customized experience.
The application also offers a map feature, enabling users to visualize their location with a simple click next to the IP address. It displays the user agent information as well, enhancing the utility of the tool. Security measures such as TLSv1 and Perfect Forward Secrecy are implemented to safeguard the geolocation requests. Users of the NoScript add-on will need to whitelist specific sites to ensure full functionality.
