IP Addresses
 

So I make a note of all the ip adds but it is starting to get frustrating.
The Ips always repeat and it takes about 20 times of logging on and off until a new Ip address comes. Is there an easier way to this? Please.
Btw I am using a usb stick iprimus.

Re: IP Addresses
 

Use a dongle on another network.

You can also look at VPNs

Re: IP Addresses
 

Use 2 other networks to spread the IP pool.

Not sure if a VPN works on eb au

Re: IP Addresses
 

Why it shouldn't work for .AU?

I pretty sure other members in here are using VPN on AU accounts...

Re: IP Addresses
 

VPN / dongles from different ips will help

Re: IP Addresses
 

Changing ISPs will work quicker.


iprimus have a limited amount of IPs at the best of times, imo.


VPNs have limited use for OZ. Mostly overused AND abused.

Re: IP Addresses
 

As James mentioned a VPN would solve your fustration with having to log ips, just need to pick a reliable provider that provides you a dedicated static ip, 24vc offers fresh ips in Australia as well

Re: IP Addresses
 

Agreed, VPN works brilliantly for dedicated IP addresses.

Re: IP Addresses
 

linked IP?

So I have a few dedicated private IP numbers, today for some reason one of the accounts auto logged into a different private IP, I logged into eBay but logged straight out after noticing this, are the two accounts done for? They are both fully verified accounts, and it's easy to make many accounts but not so easy to make verified eBay/PayPal accounts at least not for me, so if I loose these I'm pretty much done for, and yes I have already read the books many times over.

Re: IP Addresses
 

A one off IP link, while not a great thing, generally does not get an account shut down. Just make sure to avoid doing it again

Re: IP Addresses
 

One off is not an issue.


But what did you do OR not do that the same IP got logged ?

Check your methods and make sure to be really careful in future.

Good Luck

Re: IP Addresses
 

Why is it hard for you to make verified accounts?

Re: IP Addresses
 

What has worked the best for me is using Air card never failed me!

Re: IP Addresses
 

It was just a stupid mistake, I use 1 VPN company with 3 different private IP numbers, each account auto logs when I sign into that PC configuration, apparently one of the IP servers was down so the bloody thing auto signed me into another, that's why I'm kicking myself :shocked: If I had just looked I would have seen it before I logged into eBay.

It's easy to get eBay verified accounts after reading the books but PayPal is a different story, unless if you have access to someones real paperwork it's hard to verify accounts after it hits the limit, especially if you are useless with Photoshop :shocked:

Re: IP Addresses
 

Thanks, I will buy a new usb stick or dongle with a different provider and test it out. Any idea which is the best provider? Optus or Telstra?

Re: IP Addresses
 

Neither. LOL.

Vodafone or Optus

Re: IP Addresses
 

Voda has been providing a vast range of IP addresses lately.

Re: IP Addresses
 

I just bought a vodofone usb 4g dongle and it keeps giving me the same ip address when I check on whatsmyip.org... Even when I take out the usb stick and put it back in it still gives same Ip.. Anyone know why this is happening pleaseeee>?

Re: IP Addresses
 

I tried connecting after maybe 6 hours and the IP has changed, this is frustrating. Can anyone please please help me here

Re: IP Addresses
 

I've personally used voda, optus, telstra, virgin dongles.

Telstra 4g my pockets work the fastest and have never ip crossed.

Vodaphone ip pool seems really small.. (if you want to make a day of checking 5 seperate accounts use them)

Optus ip pool is good though connection many places = non-existent.

Virgin dongles i've used all seemed to be fixed ip - though i did only give it a day trial.

Re: IP Addresses
 

I also found this with voda. However, when it does change the IP address is always different to previous ones. I also use Telst. The IP address does change once you log on and off but a repeat IP comes up when checking the IP history as the pool seems limited.

Re: IP Addresses
 

may depend on location.

im in a major city and rotate through ip's up to 10 times a day.

never had a cross over with telstra

Re: IP Addresses
 

Telstra will be your best choice! i use it at all time no problems :)

Re: IP Addresses
 

Telstra has a much larger IP pool than most other providers, I have to cycle my optus modem 3-4 times to get a new IP sometimes, while telstra is a new ip 9/10 times :)
