My name is Oliver. I’ve had an interest in home networking and technology for many years now, and I have other blogs on the topic. But I’ve written a specific batch of content on IP addresses and IP addressing that I’ve decided to put on it’s own blog, ready to hand over to someone else to grow it out.

I few years back I had an interest in several different topics:

• What is an IP address?
• Why are there public and private IP addresses?
• What’s the difference between public and private/local IP addresses?
• What connects/bridges between public/local IP addresses
• What is IPv4 vs IPv6?
• How are IP addresses assigned?
• When and why do IP addresses change?
• What about device (local) IP addresses?
• Can you stop your IP address from changing?

So I researched all these topics and published the answers I found in the articles you’ll find on this site.

I’m going to build out this site to 10-15 articles, and after that I’m looking to sell it as I haven’t got time to build it out further myself (see here for more info).
