Default Just another IP question

I know you guys get tired of answering these questions but I've been searching and can't seem to find an answer.

I read eBay Stealth an began the steps of building a new etsy identity. Here is what I did:

Created a new windows user account

Gave my router a new Mac address to force my ISP to provide a new IP address. This was a pain and took many attempts but I finally got a new IP.

Made a new email address and added it to PP

Created a new etsy seller account using the above ip, email and user account.

Switched back to my original user name which I had not logged out of (big mistake) and realized that when my router reset my browser pages had refreshed, including my old etsy account.

Am I screwed now with the ip? Do I really need to start all over again? :(
Did I miss anything else? I know I need a new mailing address and visa gift card but I hadn't gotten that far yet.

Thanks in advance for your patience.

No way to know for sure really, next time just be more careful and close out of all browsers or at the very least the ebay/etsy page when switching. But yeah just keep using the account, and babying it for a while to lose the 'heat' per say

I'm thinking I will change the IP once more just to be safe, but leave everything else alone. I suppose it could be reasoned that both accounts by chance were using a hotspot with that IP. Just a bit of a hassle since I have a Sonos speaker system and I have to reregister each speaker when I change the router mac address.

I have since changed the password and logged out of the old account so I won't accidentally login on any of my devices.

Why don't you consider a computer dedicated to your business? To avoid the speaker stuff...

I do have a computer dedicated to my business (mostly). But I work from home on a network with a single ISP. I do have a smartphone though and have been connecting to that lately. The connection is very slow though.
