The Internet Changes Wednesday, But Most People Won’t Notice

With IP addresses now depleted, the Internet Society is leading the launch of IPv6 to allow the web to continue growing.
Without adopting IPv6, people surfing the web will have to go through a transitional gateway before entering a non-updated site using IPv4, making the experience slower. On launch day Wednesday, website owners are encouraged to permanently enable IPv6 — the next generation of Internet protocol.
“World IPv6 Launch Day is a lot larger than people understand,” John Curran, president and CEO of the American Registry for Internet Numbers, told Mashable in an email. “IPv6 is the single largest upgrade in the history of the Internet. It’s not a small decision for the major content providers to turn on IPv6 and leave it on.
“Going forward, Internet users will be forced to go through transition gateways to reach businesses that do not similarly upgrade by adding IPv6 connectivity, with the result being slower connections and services for their customers,” Curran added.” The good news is that done properly, Internet users globally will not notice any significant difference in their daily lives.”
Hundreds of organizations are making the switch — Google, Facebook and Time Warner Cable, to name a few.
Internet Service Providers will be able to use IPv6 to connect new customers to the web, while existing customers are unlikely to notice a change. Companies and websites should speak with their ISP or hosting company to get IPv6 turned on their existing Internet connection.
News of IPv6 and the lack of available IP addresses with IPv4 was announced in February 2011.
