[@tacticalguy6473]

@@supernenechi does all isps support ipv6?

[@forloop7713]

Still is

[@supernenechi]

@@tacticalguy6473 Nope. Really depends on your area. Most of the far developed countries who pioneered the Internet in its early years have claimed very large chunks of the ipv4 address range. That means that The US and EU countries will mostly still run on ipv4 alone. A lot of countries that are only now really booming in Internet usage can barely get ipv4 addresses and have to resort to using ipv6 exclusively. There are ways to visit ipv4 only domains and services through ipv6 however, but it would be more useful to just completely abandon ipv4 today and move over now. These days almost all ISPs in developing countries offer ipv6, mostly because they can't avoid it. ISPs where I live (The Netherlands) have been extremely reluctant to even try ipv6. At least now here more and more ISPs are using ipv6 as well, alongside ipv4. Meaning every device in your network will use IPv6 if they can, but ipv4 is they can't. It's rather pathetic how the world has actually run out of ipv4 addresses meanwhile we're all sitting here screaming how we are running out. We are not running out, we have run out already years ago and we're working around IPv6 like it's the plague.

IPV4 vs V6 is basically the difference of finding out you underbuilt (raw IPV4), patching the problem by splitting its workload (Network Address Translated IPV4), then going and massively overbuilding a replacement (raw IPV6), then applying the same patchwork to the replacement (yes, IPV6 can be run in a NAT, I don't know why).

This video would've been very useful when I was trying to figure out how this worked myself. It is still really useful as a simple version that is an all in one explanation compared to me having to check a couple different sources for everything to make sense. I am now curious as to why we even need IPV6 now since this method of conserving IP's seems to allow for a ton more devices without needing a new IP standard. Is it just future proofing?

[@thedarkdragon89]

Ok, so IPv4 sucks, it's slow, it's old, and NAT is not magic, it sucks too. IPv6 alleviates all the issues with IPv4 and we really should just shoot IPv4 and get the switch over done with. NAT slows connection speeds and hinders traffic through the network, IPv6 doesn't need NAT because it has tons more addresses than IPv4, though some moron came up with NAT for IPv6, but it's really not necessary.

[@deepspacecow2644]

NAT sucks serious balls, and you should be sorry for this opinion

[@nicholashartmann4525]

Omg thanks for actually explaining how the ports work. I had no idea how nat worked, until this video it was just "router magic". Thank you so much I now have a better understanding of how port forwarding works. I do have one question towards that though. If I say have a game server (let's say minecraft) and a media server such as plex both installed on one PC and I want to play minecraft on it with my friends while another friend is streaming off my media server, how exactly and (more accurately) where in the chain does the translation from private ip to discerning the specific program occur?

[@deepspacecow2644]

With NAT, every tcp and udp connection from an internal ip is put on a random port, the router knows traffic on this port, goes to another port on a specific ip internally.
