IP Question
 

OK I've selected a new 'User Account' and now I have to set up my IP for that account. I have no problem changing my IP address but I can't retain it or re-apply it when I enter that user account. I've tried everything but its probably because I can't control the router's LAN MAC address. I can select a new MAC address but can't reselect it.

Take a look at this image of my router settings...

Perhaps someone could help me.

Re: IP Question
 

Better to say what ISP you are using & if you have dynamic or static IP.

Re: IP Question
 

I live in Austria and the ISP is A1. As I can change my IP, I would presume it is dynamic.

Re: IP Question
 

Is it enough to change my IP when jumping between ebay/PP accounts or must I retain the IP I used when I first signed up on these accounts?

Re: IP Question
 

No you don't retain the IP address you had when you first set up the accounts, on a dynamic router you will get different IP address most times you login, you always have to make a note of the ones used though just in case the same one does come up again, the MAC address does'nt matter cannot be read

Re: IP Question
 

Dynamic is fine.

MAC address is not read by ebay.

Make sure you log your IPs. This file should be a big help...

Do a test to double check the IP does change:

Turn on the computer.

run Track Your IP Address - IPBurger.com ( created by aspkin.)

Log info.

turn off the machine and switch back on.

Log info again.

If the digits have changed , yes, you have dynamic.

Good Luck

Re: IP Question
 

Ps..... please change your flag to the correct country.

Flag should match the IP

;)

Re: IP Question
 

IOW, I change the IP every time I use an account and log it. I do the same with other accounts and just have to make sure that I never use an identical IP for different accounts.

Is this correct?

Re: IP Question
 

Sorry, I am British but live in Austria. I have changed my flag.

Re: IP Question
 

That's correct

Re: IP Question
 

OK Thank you all.

Its time to work on my name variations, email addresses, home addresses and telephone numbers.
