How to trace IP address using Wireshark












Wireshark is software that "understands" the structure (encapsulation) of different networking protocols. It can parse and display the fields, along with their meanings as specified by different networking protocols. Wireshark uses pcap to capture packets, so it can only capture packets on the types of networks that pcap supports.
You can read more about Wireshark on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireshark .

You can download wireshark from the given URL: http://www.wireshark.org/download.html , select the required version from the list.

FIND LOCATION BY IP ADDRESS

This is a simple trick and by using it you will be able to track someone’s location using his computer network’s IP (Internet Protocol Address) address. You can use this technique in anonymous chat websites like Omegle and other to find out the strangers location.  But first of all, you will have to be aware of some basic terms related to the worldwide web and computer networks.
What is an IP Address?
IP address is a numerical label assigned to each computer participating in a network. In simple terms it’s similar to your house number but in the case of computers it is assigned to identify it on the network. The IP address of your computer is accessed by almost every website so that it can communicate and identify your computer on the network.  Every computer has a unique IP which makes it possible to be identified and browse the internet. You can find out the IP address of your computer by  using sites like www.whatismyip.com or by simply searching for the term “What is my IP ? “ on Google Search.
