Tethered IP
 

I think I just did something really stupid. I signed up on my new ebay account on a new computer user with my tethered connection, but then I switched to my computer user account to look at the stealth guide(it was not in my new user) without disconnecting the phone, and when I got to the other user account, my old ebay account browser was up. I quickly closed it upon seeing it, but will my new ebay account be linked to the old one now. It was up for like a second and I closed it quickly.

Is the old ebay account still active?

Were you signed in, or was the browser open not signed into the ebay account?

Do you have your computer set up to remember passwords? If so I would NEVER recommend this.

I use a tether also and make it a total habit to unplug it once I sign out.

Also, make sure you click OFF the "stay signed in" under your user name and password. If you click this off it would not have stayed signed in for you.

I dont think you will have issues but be ready just in case.

Always unplug your phone once you are done with an account, make it a habit so this wont happen again.

Yea unfortunately it was still signed on, so I just scrapped that new ebay account, and decided to make a new one. Anyway thanks for the advice, hopefully this won't happen again...
