Re: Risks of cardsharing

Yes a vpn should work.
Defiantely not a good idea to cs if you're with sky isp.

As a client, a host or both ?

Re: Risks of cardsharing

Would a VPN not mask an IP address?
Wonder if you are more vulnerable if your ISP is also a Satellite provider, for example SLY B/B?

Re: Risks of cardsharing

How many clients do you have in your network. Your sim might be restricted to a specific number of clients. The other possibility is that the server might not be possible on a 3g network? I'm no expert though so can be wrong.

Re: Risks of cardsharing

What kind of 3g connection do you get? Is it a good solid fast connection or is it slow and unstable?

Re: Risks of cardsharing

any risk of entering in your pc ?

Re: Risks of cardsharing

But from my understanding, if you use a 3g router and data sim they can only trace which mobile phone tower you're getting your signal from.
Is that correct?

Re: Risks of cardsharing

I think if the powers that be want to find your IP address then they can using forensic techniques.
The use of going through anonymous/ip address changers is that it makes it more difficult for the casual trace.
My theory is it's a bit like having a dog or a burglar alarm at home. It wouldn't stop a determined thief but a casual one will go somewhere else...

that's correct, ok forensic techniques exist, but (happily for us perhaps) may not completely be used (due to laws and privacy - but think these are different in different countries).

hi mahrkpat

That's what I think also (although it's just a theoretically thought).
Little suggestion: perhaps someone (with a changing ip) can test this and report back. So we'll know whether the lines keep on working after ip-change or not (and then have to be changed manually afterwards).

I am not sure what you guys exactly want to know here, but your receiver only know one thing, if it wants to use Internet(server) it have to send the request to your home router and from there forwarded to the Internet. When your ip changes it is happening in ms-s so none of your client on the network will have noticeable changes.
