    Re: Risks of cardsharing

    I am going to give the 3g broadband sim a go soon, to see if it works. I have seen some comments that it works well so I think it is worth a try.

      Re: Risks of cardsharing

      toby comented: i think if you change ip, you lose servers, only one username allowed.

      maybe this is getting of topic, but really curios about what you mean with that? are you talking about server 2 or do you just mean that if you change ip when connected to a server you will bee disconnect and have to connect again to server?

        Maybe he means that if you connect with a different ip the server will see it as a double login.
        Don't think so though because my ip changes every few days.

          I switch off my router for 5 minutes everyday my broadband provider then generates another ip address, I also use Tor which is openvpn program which change what ip is shown on the net and you can continually change your ip with a push of a button. Although I am not to sure if it changes the ip of all your connections to the net or just your browsers.
          Liked my post then push the sigpic button.

            hi mahrkpat

            Are you using clines from here?
            If so + also confirmed by bokkie (ip changes every few days): also not clear to me what toby exactly meant with 'i think if you change ip, you lose servers, only one username allowed'.
            Seems possible though or did I get you wrong, or did you mean something completely else?

                  Just to clear it up. Normaly ISPs(broadband provider) only gives static ip to companys, etc. So what we the private people get is dynamic IP adresse that might change every few day depending on your isp policy. For using thor, you have difference choice for how you want to use it, but mainly tor only protects the application that you properly configure to send their Internet traffic through Tor. Using the tor browser you are very safe or any other browser you configure to use tor. Maybe the linux based routers can be modified to install tor on it and then you will get you entirely network sent through tor.

                    hi duhoki & the others

                    I know some people who talk about tor, but they didn't gave me further details (besides it seems very safe and recommended).

                    Does anyone has some experience with this, or perhaps some info or sites?

                    Would like some more info before I give it a go.

                    Thanks

                        I subscribed to hide my ass vpn last night and will give it a go over the weekend.
                        Have to configure open vpn and get some info from the vpn provider first though.

                          hi bokkie

                          Will you use your vpn just for the sat, or for internet in general? Would like to know, because for work I'm forced to use vpn in some cases, but it's very slow (last week made a comparison and had only 10-15% of download speed in comparison with 'normal' internet - upload was better, but not so critical for me). According to 'our specialists' this is normal!?

                          Therefore, any feedback on speed welcome.

                          Thanks!

                            Re: Risks of cardsharing

                            I think just for sats for now.
                            I tried to use it for download last week but was only getting about 10mb.
                            I didnt try all the servers though. There is over a hundred!

                              Re: Risks of cardsharing

                              Thanks, that's already a confirmation about the speed (I suppose when you say 10 Mb that you normally have more).

                              Tip: I try to use the vpn only when it needs to be safe, but not when speed is important (even though on 1 pc/laptop this isn't so handy, because logging in the vpn takes some time - procedure).

                                Yes I only subscribed so I could surf anonymously as I'm about to start sourcing the things I need to be anonymous when cs.
                                It is just an experiment and if allowed I will post the method of doing this once I'm finished.
