IP address has been almost two years after the fear of running out of network congestion into the normal

Internet IP addresses will soon be exhausted? 3G has just begun, 4G is coming? The recent hot topic in popular and authoritative experts, how to say?

China has 380 million Internet users, but they will get the IP address is an average of one half to two people. At the moment, not all at the same time online, so it will not feel any big problem. But given the current allocation speed, 2011, 2012 or so the international arena there is no new address can re-apply.

At that time Internet users can still access, but it will often appear congestion. Solution is used from the current IPv4 to IPv6 conversions. IPv6 capacity is very great, some people say it is "on the planet can be compiled for every grain of sand is an IP address." However, the conversion to IPv6 would require higher cost, "Only when we really felt them inconvenient to use, conversion of high enthusiasm will work together."

The moment 3G has not pushed, as had been asserted that the upcoming 4G era. In this regard, the current director of China Unicom, the CST, Liu Yunjie that, 3G is still lapping stage, 4G is still far from.

Liu Yunjie introduction, the first phase of China Unicom 3G coverage of Chongqing city and some suburbs, tourist attractions. For the public are worried about mountains, tall buildings block the signal, he said that this can be resolved through technical processing completely. Chongqing 3G network evaluation results in 31 capital cities in the sixth row, quality fully guaranteed.

For online stir the "4G", Liu Yunjie does not seem to feel the pressure. He described the current talk about 4G is LTE, the professional name for a 3.9G, at the rate, than the 3G network capacity have increased, in theory, can reach 100 megabytes. "But what is 4G technology is still unclear, the standard has not come out, so the issue is far from 4G."
