What to run

Open What Is My IP. The result is from Cloudflare.

How to read the result

The address is CF-Connecting-IP, the address Cloudflare saw.

It is not a LAN address like 192.168.x.x.

Nothing is stored.

What to open next

Open IP Geolocation for country, city, and network. That result is from Cloudflare.

Open User-Agent Parser if the ticket also needs the browser. It stays in the browser.
