Default Question about IP that may lead to possible suspension.

Although it has not occured yet, I have a question about my IP that I have posted recently, but will need to post again, but at this time wanted to ask your opinion of what you thought because I was about to list my first item in "stealth" mode.
Well at first, I could'nt change my IP for the world. And then I found out that all I had to do was turn my modem off for a couple of days and then it changed. I was so relieved at that point and a huge step for me.
My situation now is that everyday I log on it changes just as if it were dial-up.
The problem is that I have no idea what IP I had the previous times I was given the "boot" from the Bay and one day, maybe a year from now or maybe a month from now, one of the old IP's will, or at least I think, will recycle itself and make itself back around...and then before I know it...I'm slammed again by the Bay.
What the heck do I do? Any suggestions? If it is Okay I will post this too so that I may get other responses and opinions for food for thought.

I have been with the forum for 8 months and have worked very hard to weave together the "somewhat" perfect Stealth account, and just ONE account at that, and do not want to throw it all away if I can help it.

In need of help and many thanks as always!

Addressing your last points first about the one account, then it is not unreasonable to worry. From what I have seen you have taken this slowly & carefully. Unless you do something outright stoopid, then the account should be OK. What is 'stoopid?' Bad customer service, slow to send items or taking in too much money thro' paypal. These are all things you are not going to do, imho.

So this comes to the IP poser. Not such a problem. B4 you faint & ask why, should the IP turn up as one you used B4, then the' new you 'deals with it. People move, new addresses, new IP etc. OK, so you are likely still worrying about the IP. I hope you are using IPBurger or another program to check? Yes, one account, but I prefer that for safety/stealth purposes.
This is what is fine for ebay/ paypal purposes.

xx.xxx.xxx.1
xx.xxx.xxx.3
xx.xxx.xxx.6
xx.xxx.xxx.12
changes of those 4 numbers are fine. In fact if it was this sequence
xx.xxx.xx1.2
xx.xxx.xx2.6
etc is still OK.

Does this assuage any problems,waterproof?

First, I would like to say thank you, like always, for a very descriptive and helpful reply! I haven't listed my first item and ALL accounts have been "cemented" since the first week of October.
Yes I do use IP Burger plus I use IP Chicken, but mainly 'whatismyip'. All 3 are used.

About my IP...it goes...:

xx.xxx.xxx.xxx

The first 7 are always the same. The 8th # occassionaly changes, but the last 3 always change. Will the last 3 be my demise oneday?

At one time I was recording every IP each time I logged on, but that became monotonous, very old, and more like dial-up...so needless to say I had to stop and...I'm back to ask the Pros!

I believe I have used the Forum to its best, have asked very reasonable questions to my advantage, at least to the stage that I am at. I have taken my time and have used my resources efficiently, and I just don't want to screw this up with some silly "linkage" issue.

Thanks! Waterproof!
