From what I've read here, all it takes is one number on the IP to be different and that's enough for them. As long as they have nothing else that can link your accounts together.
However, I'm not an expert so I wouldn't take my word. I'd ask either Imakemoney, GrannyT or ShadyOne to make sure. They know what they're talking about!  | Think logically here
Any ISP only has so many IP addresses. They cannot create new ones.
Not everybody is on line at the same time so all those people who have logged off have no need for an IP - that means it can be allocated to someone else - A bit like airlines overbooking because they know that the limited number of seats will only be claimed by a certain number of people
Once you accept that is how it works it is obvious that what ever IP you get allocated has been used before. It may well have been used by someone suspended from EB.
That is why EB do not just work off of the IP address when they are suspending accounts.
If more than one Ebay ID is logging onto Ebay at the same time from the same IP address you can expect them to view it as suspicious and suspend accounts. This can be a problem for people using public WiFi or leaching off a neighbours IP
