Wireless Broadband IP Address Question
 

Once I move and reinvent myself on eBay (new everything [banks, computer, cc, address, auction templates, etc] [b]except my name[/i]) I will only have the one account to manage, so ...

Will having the same IP address and tracking cookie issues effect me as much [as someone who has many accounts to switch between]? Will it be less suspicious to Ebay if I just keep the IP and cookies the same?

The IP address issue may be moot: I plan on subscribing to wireless broadband for my laptop so I stay easily connected when I travel.

Has anyone experienced/know of problems using wireless broadband on eBay? (For ex, could I get a 'bad' IP when I restart or all the IP's unique to each subcriber?)

I have read the Stealth book but this issue isn't addressed (and so far I've not seen it addressed on the forum).

Thanks!

I am using wirless and had no problemss so far.

If you only have 1 account it is not a problem so far i now. Just keep your cookies and everything on your laptop. I log in everyday with a different IP address and don`t have any problems with it. Only i shouldn't`t change your password and other personal information if your not on your regular IP address. That will be a reason for Ebay to block you, anyways don`t think you will get a lot`s of problems because the account is in your own name.

:thumb: Wireless is fine. Your problems are less because it is one account.
As Freak said, do not make any changes when away ( from a different IP).
If you are overly worried, keep a log of your IPs. I do that as a safeguard in any case.:peace:

ring up your isp and ask for a static ip address. but make sure you don't get this account suspended because changing isp is a pain in the a**

Thanks for the advice all! I'm still working up my nerve, lol!
