Default Using a gateway for a second stealth account

I'm interested in creating a second stealth account in my office.

For the IP address, I was thinking of connecting to a neighbor's hotspot (using that neighbor's modem/router, but not through their personal network) and logging in to my current stealth's xfinity account.

Given that I will be using someone else's router/modem (but the same xfinity account) to log in, I would think the assigned IP address should be distinct and therefore not linked to my first stealth account that is using a different router/modem (but again, the same xfinity account). With a hotspot connection, I won't be using that neighbor's personal network either.

Can anyone confirm this? Thanks in advance.

Edit: to clarify, if you are located in the U.S., the standard router you'll get from xfinity (one of the biggest ISPs here), cannot turn off its hotspot option; the many xfinity customers who have these routers cannot prevent other wireless users from using their router to access their own xfinity account. So for example, when I lookup various wireless networks in my area, I will see several networks marked 'xfinity' (these are not personal networks, but hotspots associated with each neighbor's router). If I connect to one such hotspot and provide my xfinity account information, I can surf the web using that neighbor's router and modem, but I won't be logged in using their personal network.

If i correctly understood you want to manage another stealth by connecting to "someonelse" router to get a new IP?

What do you know about your neighbor's connection and usage... are they managing an ebay account as well? Your 2 will be linked if on the same IP...
Is my understanding right? ...I wouldn't do that...

Its a bit trickier, as I will be using the neighbor's modem/router but I won't be logged into their network, so i'm not sure what the IP address would look like.

Here's a bit more about how hotspots work:


The standard router you'll get from xfinity (my ISP), cannot turn off its hotspot option; the many xfinity customers who have these routers cannot prevent other wireless users from using their router to access their own xfinity account.

So for example, when I lookup various wireless networks in my area, I will see several networks marked 'xfinity' (these are not personal networks, but hotspots associated with each neighbor's router).

As most people in the US buy from amazon I would suspect you will be linked pretty quickly.

I actually have this modem and the hotspot feature is something that I can turn on or disable.

Even though the hotspot is in the modem/router combo box it is a separate frequency and not connected to your personal IP.

It's purpose is so that you no longer need to give guests a password and have them log on to your network, the hotspot is open to Xfinity customers and separate from your home network

I like it definitely a nice feature , the IPs change on there own frequently, it seems almost every 15 minutes . Usually my home network ip starts with a 72 -76 as the first 2'digits and the hotspot starts with 50



I copied and pasted from xfinity website below

XFINITY WiFi: Enable or Disable Home Hotspot in My Account

We encourage you to keep your XFINITY WiFi Home Hotspot feature enabled as it allows more people to enjoy the benefits of XFINITY WiFi and you will no longer need to provide your private XFINITY WiFi home network password to guests. This WiFi signal is completely separate from your secure XFINITY …
