Ip adress

Hi , my up address on my phone cellular without WiFi keeps changing. What causes that?

I haven’t went anywhere and it’s changed to 3 different places that are a fair distance away.

Anyone know?

  • It is how it is designed to work.

    The main way the network knows it is you is not through the IP address. It uses other things.

    But to make the internet work it has to give you an ip address. It just temporarily assigns you one from a list of numbers.

    It shouldn't cause you problems, unless you lose connection to the network a lot.
