is bt-fon a good idea for stealth account

[ayaz]

as my family is using ebay aswell sometimes buying stuff etc. so i cant use my broadband and always have to turn router off then on again which is a hassle.
im on bt and can use bt-fon public internet
is it a good alternative

Nothing should be considered a hassle with stealth.Better than earning some minimum wage in dead end job.
Buy a mobile dongle if it disrupts your family internet time.

That raises concerns for me.


You have no way of knowing if the IP is OK.


Like sugarlace said, buy a dongle and have better control.

Good Luck.

Huawei Mifi is my choice, it's very good and reliable.

Around £50 for the unit.

£22 ish for 3 months Data only SIM with "3" that I buy on eBay.

Good Luck!

It would be no different to using a 3G dongle as the IPs are also used by other users

i think bt-fon is fine tbh

It is rarely a good alternative to use public IPs.


We advise users to stay away from them.

stay away from public ip's like Greenbean suggests and when u lose a few stealth accounts u start to learn very fast

[stevebills]

Ebay are like big brother they are watching your every move so stay under the radar

[stevebills]

£15 per month

500 UK minutes
Unlimited UK texts
5 GB Internet
Free to giffgaff numbers
the 5gb can be used in a dongle

What do you think a 3G ip is? Also public and shared between many users.

Good point there - even then IP may be accessed by other ppl

I didn't say it was the cheapest.. I said it's what I use.

Cheap isn't always the best Steve.

another option is use your existing phone mobile ip, as a hotspot. Most households have
a few mobiles all with seperate contract and seperate ips each.....tesco as little as £7.50 pm

It isn't a good idea if BT is your ISP no. As it will most likely be your home router you end up being connected to BT-FON through anyway thus not giving you much stealth!

Tethering via your mobile phones connection would work as you get your own IP I think, ie not public. You do with 3 anyway and tethering is allowed even on a sim only plan.

tethering is banned by most networks and even 3 have discontinued it
