Matter of time?
 

Had a stealth account for about a month now. so far so good.

i was just thinking, people on here advise that we note our ip addresses because upon resetting the router you can get the same ip address as a previous stealth account.

But eventually wont you get an ip address of your first banned account (of course you didn't note your ip addresses back then)

Re: Matter of time?
 

The chances of that are remote.
Even if its only the last 2 numbers that are changing youre looking at 256 X 256 options - thats over 65000 different addresses.

Re: Matter of time?
 

Yes it is.

Anyone who tethers or doesn't have a static would know they repeat. Certain methods may mean the IP repeats more often than others ways but regardless of the "odds" they do repeat.

I live in a very populated city and it repeats *i'm using a iphone to tether*

Good stealth is to record your IP's....it takes less than a minute to do it.

I use a few 3 mobile broadband dongles and yes i have had the FULL ip repeat itself a number over times which is why it is good to track Ip's

Re: Matter of time?
 

I understand that, but i mean wont you eventually hit some ip addresses you used on your very first legit Ebay account? just curious

Re: Matter of time?
 

It's very unlikely, but if your worried about it and dont want to have to always note your ips then can get a VPN or VPS

Re: Matter of time?
 

@123, do you guys log anything for your VPN service?

Re: Matter of time?
 

sure and also other peoples ebay accounts as well.
3g will have many many many less repeats.
4G it can happen daily.
