About This Tool

Remote workers configuring firewalls and gamers opening ports search public IP finder for the WAN address ISPs assign to home routers. VSPIC documents honest behavior: missing-tools-handlers.generated.ts maps public-ip-finder to type api, action reputation with query field — fraudScore, DNSBL, and geo flags for IPv4 or domain you submit, not automatic discovery of your current public IP.

Your public IP appears when you visit what-is-my-ip style endpoints or query api.ipify.org from the browser — the address must be supplied to this reputation form manually. router-ip-finder shares the same reputation handler. This page explains WAN discovery methods and documents reputation results when you paste your public IPv4 for abuse or exposure triage.
