What Is My IP must have access to the internet to perform the query.

What Is My IP also needs to be able to send an email or SMS when your external IP Address changes, therefore your Internet Service Provider SMTP credentials are required.

What Is My IP stores them in an encrypted configuration file on your computer. Your credentials are never transferred or compromised.

If you don't have an actual domain with SMTP service, you can use your Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo, Comcast, Fios, Optimum Online, or other SMTP service. As of this writing
  • Hotmail = smtp-mail.outlook.com, port 587, SSL = True
  • Gmail = smtp.gmail.com, port 587, SSL = True
  • Yahoo = smtp.mail.yahoo.com, port 587, SSL = True
  • Fios = outgoing.verizon.net, ports and SSL may vary
Microsoft o365 now requires TLS 1.2 - this product does work with TLS 1.2 - you need to create this registry key and you must use the .Net 4.72 version

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\.NETFramework\\v4.0.30319]
"SchUseStrongCrypto"=dword:00000001

When using gmail and 2 factor authentication, simply add an APP Password that can bypass the 2 phase

Frequently Asked Questions


  Public IP Address?

If you do not own a public IP address, then your internet provider assigns you one via DHCP, (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).

  How does it work?

"What Is My IP" is a Windows service that runs on one or more of your home computers or servers. It checks your external IP address once per day or as frequently as once every 30 minutes. If your IP address changes, it sends an email or SMS to you. All of this is configurable.

  Why Do I need it?

If you are a Gamer you might. Also, many small businesses, companies that employ fewer than 50 people, do not purchase a static IP address for a variety of reasons. Notwithstanding the reason to not have a static IP, the company might rely on VPN (Virtual Private Network) or use SSH (Secure Shell) as a means to access the corporate network. Perhaps someone needs to work from home, or two satellite offices need to be linked to the main office. To access your network from the internet, you need to know your router’s public address.

  Is there another way?

Companies like DYNDNS, or Duck DNS, or No IP, or yDNS, zonomi, or hopper, allow you to attach a DNS host name to your public IP address. Some routers automatically update your dynamic IP address with your dynamic DNS provider so that when your public IP address changes, your DNS is up to date.

  What makes this special?

Our product is installed at your site or house. There is a one time fee. No subscription.

  What else?

Sometimes the Dynamic DNS service does not work for various reasons. Certain Verizon Routers have an entry in the router for Dynamic DNS, but the router never updates it, almost like the function in the router is disabled.
