IP only recorded when logging in?
 

Well I have had 5 accounts now for 6 months and I know that many times after logging in my mobile broadband card would disconnect and reconnect on it's own and get a new IP address. I believe that Amazon only records the IP when logging in. If they were to record the IP for all activity while logged in do you think my accounts would have been linked by now?

If I am right about this, what I would like to do is use dialup to log in, and then connect to my home Wifi so I will have the speed of broadband.

I am sure Az has periodic checks of IP during the whole interaction process - like when you list an item (click: IP note), do withdrawal (Click: IP note); reply to e-mail (click: IP note), etc....employed principle by many websites

Yea I wouldn't use that method, too risky

Well if that's the case I would suspect all my accounts will be linked. I just thought it would happen pretty quickly.
