No, IPv6.superkidmax said:well, time for IPv7
yippee for updating :3
Everything on the internet needs an IP. The old IP system (IPv4) didn't think we'd get nearly as many people online as we have now, so it doesn't have enough addresses for every device/home to have it's own IP. When we run out, new stuff can't be added. ISPs might not be able to take new customers, cell phone carriers that give web access as well might have to stop taking new customers.ron975 said:That list couldn't have every single IPv4 adress down couldn't it?It's blocks of IPs that are given to things like ISPs and the government.
