hey guys I checked my IP on a site but there is standing your IPv6 and IPv4.

Do I have two IPs at the same time?

After router newstart only IPv6 changed but IPv4 not why?
 
No, you don't. It's just a different format of showing the IP. IPv4 is old protocol and IPv6 is new protocol.
 
But why IPv6 changed and IPv4 not on this site, it’s a big site I don’t think it’s a bug
 
you got 1 ip what a ipv4 and it split into ipv6 from same ip .

just so u no.

a ipv4

196.123.768.543:80

a ipv6

196.123.768.543:34
196.123.768.543:99
196.123.768.543:76

as you can see a ip6 is made with using the orignal ipv4 ip but the port is chaged for it to be seen as a new ip.

it all done thu a ipv4 converted to ipv6 dns server

only a easy example for u to undrstand .

of course me setting this with servers it done different i allocate the ipv6 a ip address i make up , then add the port number.

but i still use only 1 ipv4 ip.

for the web internet , a ipv4 works on port 80 or port 8080 only , but by fowarding the ip to a dns server i can allocate that ip many other ip with my own ip numbers and set the ports.

but you need loads of bandwidth .

there a problam with ipv6 , becouse there so many ipv6 made from 1 ipv4 ip , there many bans.

1 ipv4 can do unlimited ipv6 but the problam is if 1 ipv6 ip is ban so are all the other 1pv6 on the ipv4 dns ip

196.123.768.543:34 if this was ban
196.123.768.543:99 this is aswell
196.123.768.543:76 and this aswell

becouse it hanging of
196.123.768.543:80 this ipv4

remember when a ipv4 converts to the new ipv6 the new ipv6 will only show as numbers and letters , them funny numbers and letters are the dns conversion packets to the ipv4 original addresss .

hope u understand , only took 5 books to get
the concept right lol
