How is IP Address Determined for Instagram? Understanding the Process

22 Replies, 2165 Views

Hey! So, Instagram determines your IP address based on the network you’re connected to. Whether it’s Wi-Fi or mobile data, the IP is assigned by your ISP or mobile carrier.

Using a VPN? Instagram will see the VPN’s IP, not yours. That’s how VPNs work—they reroute your traffic through their servers.

If you’re switching networks, your IP will change. Instagram will log the new IP each time.
