I use cloudflare for my website and I am wondering why my clients IP changing every time I use this script.

In Google my IP is 5.250.13.100 also in other sites like whatismyip I have same.

But when I use this script in my site(with cloudflare) every time I load this script its give me different IP in same range?

<? 
echo $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]; 
?>

IP range is: 173.245.. - 188.114..

By looking in CloudFlare IP ranges I found this range is from CloudFlar!

  • So how can I detect in my website my visitor's real IP?

various solutions from cloudflare

From CloudFlare :

To restore the original visitor IP addresses to log files and web applications running on Apache httpd web servers, you will need to install mod_cloudflare
