What is an IPv4 Address?
An IP (Internet Protocol) Address is a network identifier the phone is assigned when connecting to an internet network. Giving each network device an IP address ensures that each device can be found and any data that is sent over that network goes to the correct devices. If you notice there is not an IP address, then your phone may be encountering connection issues.
