Get client IP address

Question

User657329123 posted

Hi
In a MVC web application, I need to display a disclaimer if client's IP is outside certain IP range. I was wondering if it is possible to get client IP address? I know there are some paid services that provide IP address of the client using AJAX calls. Is there any free solution out there?

It is not possible to get the client's actual IP.  You can get the client's gateway IP.
