Can HTTP 2.0 download simultaneously from two different IPs?

Webmasters Asked on November 3, 2021

When looking at GTMetrix, all of the content from server A downloads simultaneously. When the content switches to another server, such as Google analytics or Google Tag Manager, it waits to download the content from Server A, before starting to download Google Tag Manager even though the JavaScript code is async.

Note that in the image, content on the same server downloads async, but downloading appears to be synchronous when you switch between servers.

Clarification:
HTTP 2.0 allows for multiple simultaneous sockets. The question is, "does that mean multiple sockets from multiple IP addresses simultaneously or only from a single IP address?" The waterfall diagram appears to say only from a single IP address at a time.

Additional info:
All of the fonts are downloaded simultaneously, even though they come from two different servers. I’ve even verified that the request start time since beginning matches. See the three lines above the image section.

No. One connection is established and it is through this one connection that all transfers are made from your IP address. The other sites are different IP addresses and will get their own, different connection.
