Default What if a friend stays?

So what if a mate stays at my house a couple of weeks ago/months ago and uses my WiFi to access his/her eBay/PayPal account.

Are we now connected?

If you shared the same IP then yes

So that means everyone is rather vulnerable as I've only recently changed my IP to a VPN and haven't changed my router for about 3 years.

As a one off linking via IP is not that bad. But if you and your friend were using the same IP for a length of time then the link will be stronger.

Nonetheless that wasn't a wise move dallantan!, you should have got your mate to bring a portable mifi device with him so his accounts would always be separate from yours, those devices are excellent to use, for keeping things separate. Particularly good when anyone else in the house goes online as well.

I don't know do you share the same interests? watch the same chick flicks? does your heart skip a beat when he enters the room?

I've got a 3 one dallantan, they come in various shapes and usually small sizes, just connect up to it via your computer devices wifi, it will pick up the mifi signal and you or your mate can work away undetected. VPN is great as well and can be acquired via this forums marketplace. The 3 mifi cost about £50 if I remember right, can top up online when the time comes which is convenient as well.

An IP address being used once is not enough to cause a definite link.
As i am sure people who live in your area using the same ISP will incur the same IP you get at least once in a lifetime.
(Doesnt always happen, but it can happen)

But if he used your IP & same PC/User account, that is a different story.
