Shows detailed information about your IP and location. Shows your IPv4 & IPv6 address and also geolocational informations about your IP addresses.

A badge of your current country is shown on the icon, which will refresh every 3s. So you can easily see, if you have a broken VPN or proxy connection when the country-code changes unexpectedly. Additionally a notification appears on your desktop when one of your IP addresses (IPv4 or IPv6) has changed - of course, it can be turned off in settings.

You can also display your position on a map by clicking the corresponding button next to the IP address.

Excellent tool if you're using a VPN, just to make sure your preferred country IP is currently being used. Thanks a million, dear Aykut Çevik! Blessings!

Nutze diese sehr gute Erweiterung seit Jahren, sie arbeitet wirklich zuverlässig. Seit eines der letzten Firefox-Updates zeigt sie sehr oft Netzwerk-Fehler an, ohne dass ein Fehler besteht.
