An IP address is allocated to every device that connects to the internet. This IP address identifies the device connected to the WWW network and allows data to be routed to or via this device. It is possible to have a static IP address (one that is permanently allocated to a device) or a dynamic address (one that changes every time you reset you router or PC.

Most VPNs give you a choice of IPs from 20 or more countries around the world, allowing you to appear as though you’re in the US, UK, Fareast, Asia, or wherever else you need to be. If you can’t access US-only web content because you’re somewhere else in the world, getting a US IP address from a VPN might be enough to get you in.
