I want to get user ip address for my application. I am using following code as

C#

txtip.Text = HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"];

but it always return 127.0.0.1 but my actual ip address is 192.0.0.110. I want this ip to be returned using coding in asp.net .

Try this:

C#

string visitorIPAddress = Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"];

if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(visitorIPAddress))
    visitorIPAddress = Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"];

or

C#

if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(visitorIPAddress))
    visitorIPAddress = Request.UserHostAddress;

This code results exact ip address of system. rather than the router address like 127.0.0.1

C#

System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces()[0].GetIPProperties().UnicastAddresses[0].Address.ToString();

happy coding.
