3. Two Mobile Revolutions…

4. “Real” Mobile Broadband…
• 2000s: GPRS/3G
– Limited devices: WAP, basic services
– 100-1000kbps or so
– IP over digital voice network (IPv4)
– Single user
• 2010s: 4G/LTE
– General purpose devices: full Internet access
– 10-100Mbps
– IP-based infrastructure (IPv4 and IPv6)
– Multiple user (hotspots, Mifi, etc)
– The new last mile
• Watch out for: Carrier wifi, “Wifi First”

5. Not “If” but “How” we will connect…
• The last mile…
– Not wired
– but wireless
• Wireless…
– Not 3G
– but 4G and carrier wifi (same device!)
– And everything over IP (LTE/802.11x)
• But: Which IP?
– IPv4 or IPv6?

6. 100 million IPv4 addresses left…
