What is an IP address?

An IP address, or Internet Protocol address, is a unique address that identifies a device on the internet or a local network, such as your computer or smartphone. It's similar to a home address that helps information find its way to the right place. Devices on a network each have a unique local IP, but they generally share the public IP assigned by the Internet Service Provider (ISP).

What is a VPN?

A Virtual Private Network, or VPN, is a technology that lets you create a secure and private connection over the internet. It can increase privacy and anonymity, as well as circumvent geographic blocking and censorship. With a VPN you can send and receive data as if your device were directly connected to a private network, even on public Wi-Fi such as a coffee shop or hotel.

What is IPv6?

IPv6, or Internet Protocol version 6, is the most recent version of the Internet Protocol used to identify and locate devices on a network. It is the successor to IPv4, the previous and more widely used version. IPv6 is intended to eventually replace IPv4 to address the shrinking pool of available IPv4 addresses.
