We have previously talked about the issue of accessing an IPv6 network from IPv4 network.
What's the issue - well, IPv4 and IPv6 are not directly compatible with each other and cannot communicate directly without some form of translation. This means that an IPv4 network cannot connect to an IPv6 network directly. Without going into much technicality, ISP (Internet Service Provider) like ACT, BSNL do not provide IPv6 out of the box. This means you cannot connect with IPv6 device. Read More
Well, we have a very quick and simple solution for converting your IPv4 only network to IPv6 using Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1
1.1.1.1 is an DNS service - DNS stands for Domain Name System, which is a hierarchical and decentralized naming system for computers, services, or other resources connected to the Internet or a private network. DNS is responsible for translating human-readable domain names, like "google.com", into the numerical IP addresses that computers use to identify each other on the Internet. This process is important because humans are better at remembering domain names than numerical IP addresses, and it allows users to easily access websites and other online resources using user-friendly names.
1.1.1.1 is the fastest DNS
How do you deploy this DNS setting. Well, you have to go in your internet settings ....
But wait there is an easy way, just go to the link https://1.1.1.1/ and download the app for your favorite operating system. Install the app and just enable the 1.1.1.1 DNS. Form now, any request (www.gmail.com) will be resolved at 1.1.1.1 DNS service provider.
Additionally, you have an option of WARP which does add a lot of features to your connection, one of which is IPv6 enabling on an IPv4 ISP.
WARP is an optional app that builds on top of 1.1.1.1. WARP creates a secure connection between your personal device (such as your computer or smartphone) and the services you access over the Internet. 1.1.1.1 only protects DNS queries, while WARP protects all traffic from the device.
WARP does this by routing traffic through the Cloudflare network instead of the public internet. Cloudflare automatically encrypts all traffic and in many cases can be accelerated by routing it through Cloudflare's low-latency path. In this way, WARP provides some of the security benefits of virtual public network (VPN) services without the performance penalties and privacy concerns associated with many commercial VPNs.
