Billion UK Claims to be the First IPv6 Ready Broadband ISP Router Manufacturer
Billion, a Taiwan based manufacturer of networking equipment and power supply products, has today heralded itself for being one of the first broadband ISP router manufacturers to be ready and compliant with the new IP (Internet Protocol) address standard - IPv6 .
An IP address is assigned to your computer each time you go online (the internet equivalent of a phone number), which allows you to connect with other systems and services. Sadly the current range of IPv4 (e.g. 84.76.41.2) addresses are running out and so IPv6 (e.g. 2002:0:0:0:0:0:5517:38c6) was created, though many in the industry have been slow to adapt.
Billion's announcement has been timed to coincide with World IPv6-Day on 8th June 2011, which is when many of the world's major content providers (e.g. Google, Facebook etc.) will offer their services over IPv6 for a 24-hour "test flight".
