Re: new user account on same laptop
 

I read it from 'well i am using dongle and notice it only give 3 ip address so it can be quite dangerous what do u think? using ee sim'

... and I misinterpreted that to think the OP was talking about the networks himself. Hands down my mistake.

As for the 3 network and their IP pool, it could potentially depends on your location. My location had a small pool, as well as a few other forum members I spoke to. Glad your able to run 30+ accounts off of yours.

Re: new user account on same laptop
 

Guys, I thought dongle give you unique ip address, does not depends on mac address of dongle? on router when we chnage mac address it give me different unique ip address maybe dongles doe snot work like this way. I been noting down all the ip address in past 2 days since Play advised and notice after few hour it does give new ip so far i got 10 different ip on one dongle in past 48 hours which always start with 31.xx.xxx.xx and on other dongle which has different ee sim also got 7 ip's in 48 hours which start with 178.xx.xx.xx

now I am confused as dont think these are unique ip's so my question is, will this possible to cross over the ip address on these both dongles? ie let says i got 31.11.22.33 on one dongle today and after few days or month other dongle give me same ip?

to be honest I dont want to keep record of ip's I only maximum using 3 accounts at same time, and normally get ee sim from ebay from £15 with 90 days credit so £5 each month which is ok for me but now I thought after play said as these ip's are limited depends on network so may crossover.

so for same side batter to use ee on one dongle and 3 on other dongle....

Record IPs or get a VPN. Third option is get linked.

Re: new user account on same laptop
 

even using one dongle on one network and another on different network, will they still linked?

Re: new user account on same laptop
 

You mean one dongle/network per account?
That would be fine. But there's about 5 network operators in the UK. So when you've used them, whats your plan?

Yeh play that's what I mean. 3 accounts are enough for me. 2 already using them from many years never had any issue just one more and that's it!!

Also play I don't think these dongles or even phone data ip's matches. i e I am using my own account on my mobile and pc etc on one network and I am sure many people suspended on this network from ebay so then ip's will be blacklisted so how my account and many thousands of other accounts not get linked.

If ebay start linking like this then who ever using mobile data will be link as I am sure many people using data sim And got banned from ebay. Maybe I am wrong but this can't be true!

Re: new user account on same laptop
 

IP doesnt get blacklisted. IP is just one of the many factors used to decide whether you are associated with another account.
