🌐IP stands for Internet Protocol. An IP address is like a mailing address for a device that is online. When your phone, smart TV, or gaming system connects to the internet, it uses an IP address, so websites know where to send information back. For example, when you open a website, its information is delivered to your device using its IP address, much like a package is delivered to your home using your street address.

Public vs Private IP Address

🔓Public IP address: The address your home or business internet connection uses when communicating with the world wide web. It is usually assigned by your internet service provider. To find out what this address is:

Open a web browser.
Select a search engine.
Search: What is my IP address?

🔐Private IP address: An address your router gives to each device inside your home or workplace, such as your phone or smart TV. To find out what this address is:
Open Settings.
Select Wi-Fi.
Tap the information symbol next to your connected network or tap the WiFi network itself.
Look for IP Address or Network details

*The specific wording may depend on the operating software your phone runs on.

After 37 years with Canby Telephone Association, Canby Telcom, and DirectLink, Central Office Technician Tony Heckard has retired, bringing to a close a career defined by technical expertise, continuous learning, and a willingness to help others.

While Tony joined CTA Communications in June 1989, his telecommunications journey actually began a decade earlier. Fresh out of vocational-technical school in Pennsylvania, he started working with an independent telephone contractor installing equipment on Strowger step switches for telephone companies across Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio, and Indiana. After a Bell System strike left him unemployed, he joined the United States Navy, where he continued building the skills and experience that would shape the rest of his career.

Along the way, Tony witnessed some of the most dramatic technological changes in communications history. From rotary-dial telephone systems and electromechanical switches to software-powered networks, fiber optics, cloud-based platforms, and wireless technology, he has seen it all firsthand.

🌍Around the globe, the 8th of October is observed for World Mental Health Day. It is a time to raise awareness of mental health issues and to become aware of the help that exists for the 1 in 8 people that suffer from mental health conditions.

👩‍⚕️Many have found help by using telehealth (also known as tele behavioral health) which allows patients to receive mental health care through online resources such as video or phone calls, messages, or even email.

🌐With a reliable fiber connection, you can make sure that when you are in one of these calls, you can experience fast and uninterrupted service so that you can get the help you need when you need it. Ask your healthcare provider how you can take advantage of these and many more digital tools to start your mental health wellness journey.

For more information regarding this day, please visit the World Health Organization’s website and search for World Mental Health Day.
