Dongle vs VPN
 

I'm renting and great Free WiFi is part of the package. So I assume that I am looking at needing to purchase a Dongle or do VPN. I only probably need a maximum of 3 accounts and maybe just 2 to spread out my items.

Any ideas on which one is better and why? Would VPN allow me to have more than 1 account ro do I need to purchase 1 VPN per account?

Do I need a vpn dongle?

The most popular way of managing multiple accounts with VPNs is with Virtual Machines. You can setup where each VPN is on each virtual machine this way you can manage multiple accounts with its on dedicated VPN IP.

Ok, let me make sure I understand this -- I set up Virtual Machines for both accounts and purchase 2 VPNs one for each account?

1 VPN per Account, otherwise your just going to get limited. Do you know what a VMWare is?

I have heard of them but dont understand how they work. Thank you!

What it is essentially is a program that allows you to run windows operating systems such as windows XP, windows 7, and so forth. This is used primarily to run multiple accounts at the same time or to appear to be using a completely new computer system without having to buy multiple computers.

Thanks for your responses btw. I'm just going to piggyback off this. What's a good vpn service if I'm looking for a static IP? Haven't been able to find a good one.

24vc is recommended by everyone here and covers many countries. I've found a few other ones, which cover some not so big countries. Haven't used them, but they seemed worth a try.

OP, you need to compare the local prices for one USB modem with three VPNs and go from there, depending on your budget and your monthly profits.

or you could just set up another windows user account.:boink::boink:;)

Of course, I never said it was the only way. Everyone has their preferred method.

I also have the same doubt.
I plan to have initially only 2 or 3 stealth accounts. But in the long run, more.
With a dongle, I can often have a different IP address when I reset the connection, however, as I plan to work always in the same physical location, I can see the IP's are very close to each other. This it's not suspicious to ebay? Also, I can see that I get many times the same IP's. At least for me, it's not that 5% probability that the book talks. I frequently got the same IP's in the same day when I reset 5 or 6 times, so, as I already used many times that dongle to enter in my old accounts I take a serious risk to overlapping IP's right? Mainly because I never tracked IP's before so I really don't know if an IP it's used or not.
Do I avoid this by buying another dongle from a different ISP and use the old dongle for old accounts and the new dongle from different ISP for new stealth accounts?

I found a VPN provider ( myip.io ) and they claim to give me a dedicated IP with at least 6 months quarantine and that will be only used by me and that's cheap. Anyone have some feedback on this?
Will this be a more reliable option? I know I have to buy a dedicated IP for each account, but I think they will be more strong, as I will always use the same IP address to log in. Plus, I do not have to reset anything and I can use my fast internet over the slow speed of the dongles.

Sorry, i'm really a newbie.
