Currently, we have a couple of thousand unique IPv4 addresses and several billion IPv6 addresses.</p>\n<p>Using our ordinary service, several users share the same external IP address simultaneously, which increases the anonymity. OVPN thus uses shared IP addresses, and every time a user connects, he or she gets a new one.</p>\n<p>If you want a dedicated IPv4 address that won’t change each time you connect to OVPN, you can order that add-on here: <a href=\"https://www.ovpn.com/en/features/public-ipv4\">Public IPv4</a>.</p>"}}
