my situation, dongles/VPN/hotspots.I'm getting confused
 

Hello guys.
I'm soon gonna buy a stealth account but for the matter of changing the IP I'm still confused. I'm reading as many posts as I can in this section to understand the subject.
I would like to explain my situation : I live in a house share, so I cannot mess around with the router, as I would create problems to my housemates activities. We also have Virgin, which I read it's the hardest broadband to change IP to.
At this stage I think I would use one stealth account, and go back to my original account (with real personal details) in order to buy. Basically I would go back and forth between these two.
I'm a mac user.
I read about dongles, VPN, hotspots....and I'm getting really confused...
What would be a fairly simple setup?
Your help would be much appreciated.
Cheers

In your situation, only running 1 or 2 accounts, I'd only use my cell phone hotspot and log ip's with google sheets.

Using the smartphone's provider data? Having a plan with big data has its own cost. I think I already pay £12 for a plan with 3GB. Wouldn't a VPN of £5/7 per month be a cheaper solution?

I dont use more than 5gb of data a month total and that's with 5 accounts and personal use. But I dont watch youtube videos, have a facebook, snapchat, or instagram account. All you really need that data for is listing and printing out labels if you do so from your account.

The only thing I use data for with my accounts is listing, excepting returns, giving refunds and withdrawing $.

If I was you I'd start with what I already have. You can add a VPN later. Residential/Cellular IP's are better to start off with anyway.

You would struggle to find a VPN for £5 a month that is any good

1 x 10gb dongle would cost around £15 a month or so and that is really your best solution
