How do I add more IPv4 Addresses?
Blocks of IPv4 addresses are now available from Zen. Though the last available blocks have officially been allocated, and the long term future of the internet will move towards IPv6, IPv4 is likely to remain important for a few years, as businesses worldwide continue to get to grips with IPv6.
Static IPv4 Address
A single, static IPv4 address is available free of charge with all of Zen's broadband services. However, we know that in some circumstances you may require more, which is why we offer blocks of 8 to 1024 IPv4 address from as little as £0.83 (ex VAT) per address, per month.
Why do we need IPv6?
As the number of connected devices and hosts is increasing, and the internet continues to grow, we now need more IP addresses than ever. And, as more and more people and devices demand always-on connectivity - and the 'internet of things' starts to become a reality - the demand for IPv6 will become ever-greater.
Why should I get IPv6?
We know that IPv4 will be around - and work alongside IPv6 - for years to come, but IPv6 will become more and more important. At Zen, we have worked to ensure that our broadband services are IPv6 compatible. After undergoing a series of trials, we're now able to offer an IPv6 address to every broadband customer. Moving to IPv6 is free on all our broadband services.

Understanding IP Addresses: Private and Public
When it comes to internet connectivity, understanding the difference between a private IP address and a public IP address is crucial. An IP address (Internet Protocol address) is a unique numerical identifier assigned to devices connected to a network, enabling communication between them.
- Private IP Address: Private IP addresses are used within a local area network (LAN) to identify devices such as computers, printers, and smartphones. They are not directly accessible from the internet, ensuring internal communication remains secure and efficient. Zen Internet offers tailored solutions for configuring and managing a private network of IP addresses within your organisation's local network infrastructure.
- Public IP address: Public IP addresses are assigned by internet service providers (ISPs) and are unique globally. A public IP address assigned to your business will allow company devices to communicate directly over the internet, enabling services like web hosting, email servers, and remote access. Understanding your router's public IP address location is also crucial for optimising network performance and ensuring compliance with regional data regulations. At Zen, we facilitate seamless integration of public IP addresses into your business operations, ensuring reliable connectivity and accessibility for external communication needs.
- Optimising your network infrastructure: Whether you require robust security measures with private local IP addresses or enhanced external connectivity with public IP addresses, Zen Internet offers customised solutions tailored to your business requirements. Our expert team ensures smooth implementation and management, empowering your business with dependable and efficient internet access solutions.
