Detailed explanation-1: -Every device that connects to your internet network has a private IP address. This includes computers, smartphones, and tablets but also any Bluetooth-enabled devices like speakers, printers, or smart TVs. With the growing internet of things, the number of private IP addresses you have at home is probably growing.
Detailed explanation-2: -Every computer and smartphone must have an IP address to access the internet. IP is short for Internet Protocol, and like your postcode, it has to be sufficiently unique, as this ensures all connected devices can accurately send and receive data between themselves.
Detailed explanation-3: -Does every device connected to the internet on the same local network have different public IP addresses? Yes and No. On IPv4, the public IP address is the same for all of them. On IPv6, each device can have its own public IP address, if that is how it has been set up.
Detailed explanation-4: -A IP address, which stands for internet protocol address, is a numerical label assigned to each device connected to a computer network. There are two main versions in use which have different formats: IPv4 is often written as 1-3 digit values separated by periods (ex: 172.16. 254.1)
