I want to get the ISP provider name and display it whenever I run my winform application. Can anybody suggest me any way to do that.
I know that I can achieve this by using webclient class, I am also getting the result but I do not want to send a request to another website and find out the ISP name, for the simple reason that, “what if that service websites stops providing free service ?”. I want another way around for this.
Thank you.
If you don’t want to use external services to determine this you will need local copy of IP-to-ISP database (I’ll let you google this one, but there’s definitely one out there that’s free and has v4 and v6 mappings). If you have external IP it’s simple from there.
