mobile dongle
 

Last couple days, i have been trying to change my ip address, no success.
I came across mobile dongle option, but all these dongles change ip everytime you disconnect. I am going to use only 1 paypal account and no ebay. If paypal checks on me and see that i am logging in every time with new ip, they can get suspicious.

is there any pay as you go dongle with static ip? Or maybe something similar can be used?

A 3G dongle with dynamic IP will NOT cause any issues.

A different IP everytime is not an issue.

I have been using a 3G dongle on stealth accounts for over 3 years.

you need 3 or 4 accounts and build them up as one account is like skating on ice with your slippers on and a dongle is a good way to go and static is a big no :welcome;

Who is your internet with, a solution to not being able to change your IP may be possible.

I use mobile internet data and get a new ip each time I reconnect.
I've never had any issues with ebay or PayPal.

Thank you guys, so i will just go with 3g dongle.

I am using virgin wireless broadband and everything i tried to change ip failed. Maybe someone knows how to do that?

Dynamic i.p addresses are not a problem, for each PP and eby account use one dongle and sim,,,,for another use another dongle and sim

Regards static i.p addresses and dongals i can't remeber but i think it might be vodaphone that can do them but you might have to request it......... A Simple internet search should yeld results, i Know it did for me when i last checked.

Not really - they look more at the cookies on the account...many of us log into our pp`s with different IPs.

Actually PayPal does not mind a different IP address. Your account would have its cookies etc so PayPal looks for those.
PayPal recognises the IP as being static or dynamic. You should not have issues

Majority of my accounts are run via dynamic IPs. They go fine

(Totally ignoring the glitches of course)
You can safely consider a dongle

Did you power down and wait a few minutes?

When did that start to happen with virgin wireless broadband in the UK?

That wont make a difference with a static ip.

I got a good deal with o2 for a mobile dongle.

Under £16 for 2gb Pay As You Go with the dongle thrown in for free and next day delivery.

I registered it (maybe a mistake, but we'll see) and they doubled my data to 4gb for free.

From my recollection, there are a few posts on the forums about o2 not giving the change in IP needed...small glitch for few users

It seems to be changing IP's on each connection.

Thanks for the heads up though. I'll keep an eye on it just in case. :cool:

Make sure you keep the receipt to return the dongle if any issues :P
