How do I determine the physical location of an IP address?
Question:
How do I determine the physical location of an IP address?
Answer:
There are several online services that will display your
IP address and the associated city,
state, and/or country with that IP address or any other IP address
entered into the site. Often this information is associated with
where the ISP is located and not
the exact location of the person of that IP address.

I want to find the exact physical address of an IP.
There is no method of associating an exact physical
geographical address or the person associated with a IP address
that an end-user can do. If you'd like to report abuse by a person
behind an IP address contact local authorities and/or the ISP who's
in control of that IP address.
Keep in mind that an IP address could be
spoofed or that the user may be
behind a proxy and using its IP address. If behind a proxy, you may
also be able to report abuse to the proxy service and they may be
able to track down the real IP address.
