Changed IP provider: what do I do with new account
 

Hi all, I just changed my internet provider from DSL with AT&T to Comcast cable. Do I still have to change the IP address before i create a new eBay accout?
Thanks

Steve

yes you will need to change the ip address each time you make a new ebay account.

Hi steve welcome to the forums

the easiest way to create a new ebay account and to log onto the account is to have a

fresh ip and the best way is to keep track of your ip's

You made the right move. DSL is awful.

Welcome to the forum,Steve :D


As part of starting out again, I suggest you create an excel sheet with all your info (passwords,secret questions). If your aim is for multiple accounts, lots of us also use

IPBurger | What is my IP Address? Find Your IP Address!

as a tool to make sure we are using a new IP :D

Oh, I was thinking since I started with a new provider the IP address would be different.

Yeah but having ONE different IP doesn't really benefit you much

your ip will of changed when you changed providers. so no, you will not need to change it for the new account your about to set up. but you will need to change it if you make another account in the future.

i didnt think that is what you ment when i first wrote my first reply.
