If you’re just testing your own network, Angry IP Scanner is handy. Scans local IPs and shows active devices.
For public IPs, ARIN’s WHOIS tells you who owns the IP block. Not location, but useful for ISP info.

Thanks for all the suggestions! I tried IPinfo.io and it gave me the ISP + city, which is all I needed.
Quick q tho—do VPNs mess up these tools completely? Like, if someone’s using NordVPN, does it just show their server location instead?
Also, PingPlotter looks cool for network stuff—gonna test that next. Appreciate the help! 🙌
