IP Address Questions

[blueandpinkorchids]

I think I messed up but am not sure? I just recently got a new internet service and am awaiting on my new laptop to arrive. My account was suspended recently. I am trying to open a new account. I went to Etsy on my current laptop not realizing I was still logged into my old suspended account, I logged out immediately.

I later went to the store and wasn't connected to any wifi. I checked the IP address log on my suspended account, and it looks like my new IP address was logged as signing out. Did I mess up?

Will my new account that I create on my new laptop when it comes in the mail be flagged immediately? I didn't do anything I only logged out. I was trying to look up supplies. I heard that the IP address has to be tracked multiple times and I'll be fine if it was only that one occurrence.

Is the new internet service registered under your name?

No it's under my boyfriends name. Might be a stupid question but the IP address that shows as logged on Etsy is different than the IP address from the cable box. So I think I may be okay?

Plus it was only one time and I heard you need to be logged multiple times for it to get flagged. Do you think I am okay to create the new account?

1 time is likely to be fine based on previous experience and other posters.
