eBay on my iPad.
 

I have an accounts running on 2 seperate iPhones. One is constantly connected to my wireless broadband. The other I only log on via my 3G mobile connection.

I was hoping to open a third account via my iPad but before I take the plunge I was hoping for some advice.

Would I be better turning my router off and on to change the IP - switching my iPhone off that I have the wireless running on and making a new eBay on my iPad with a new IP or is that just a disaster waiting to happen?

Or, would it just be easier putting a sim In the iPad and making a new account through the 3G connection, to be safer?

Before anyone asks no I don't have laptop or PC access as they are currently needing repaired.

Advice welcome. Obviously it would be easier if I could just turn off and on the router.

As long as you get a good IP, whether it's from your 3G Data connection or wireless router , both options are workable as long as you have an IP that was never used on another of your accounts.

Also a couple good apps that I use on my I pad to help with stealth :

" SWITCH" which allows you to create multiple user accounts, I think you can make 12 separate user accounts , so no need to erase cookies, you just start with a fresh user account and good IP and no need to delete cookies or any data.

" IPVIEW" which will log every IP that you ever use and you can tell instantly if the current IP was never used before and if it was used just open up "NUMBERS" which works like excel and log your IPs and with the search function you can see what account u have used the IP previously on

" TEXTPLUS" good VOIP will accept short code thru text, from eBay when setting up seller account

Keep track of your IPs so you dont use the same one across accounts

Make sure you do not use the APP.

Stick to using browsers only.

Hi, does anyone here know if ebay/paypal tracks particular iphones via the hardware or can they only track via the ip address?

-thanks

Re: eBay on my iPad.
 

If you use the eBay/paypal apps they can track a lot of info, if you use a browser then it's only the IP.

Re: eBay on my iPad.
 

info on all these apps?

are they all in the app store? through cydia?

Re: eBay on my iPad.
 

Avoid basically any APP that accesses ebay. Stay away and use the browser, watch your ip.
