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

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.

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

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 ?

I'd say both. I've been told that they keep an eye out for users that download small bits of data every few seconds and also monitor the ports known to be used by cs.
Probably still be ok, but why take the chance?
I changed from sly uk when I started cs.

Stu49,
always best to be on cautious side, as you probably only client at the moment, but who knows, soon you might get into the cardshing game!

Re: Risks of cardsharing

Would be interested to know about a 3G dongle connected to a SKYbox. This would be a method I would consider and as far as I'm aware would keep you anonymous.
Has anyone had success using a PAYG 3G one on a Skybox F3 ?

Re: Risks of cardsharing

The problem with a 3g modem is the city where you live. If you stay in a big city no problem...If you're in a small town is impractical

I dont think anyone has tried a 3G on a skybox F3 but some members have tried the 3G PAYG on its own for cs and they think its working well. Not in small villages as we dont get 3g signal in many places and rural areas in the UK but good for big towns and cities. Keeps you anonymous because it can be traced to the nearest mobile mast.
