Hey guys, I looked into a terminal command to check if my IP is dynamic and it confirmed it is.  I googled my ip address 24 hours apart and it remains the same (i reset my router half way as well).  Do i manually change my IP address or do they take days to change?  Should I look into VPN if i am considering gold farming 2-3 accounts and my dynamic ip is not changing daily on its own?

 

edit: will be running relatively low ban rate gold farming scripts on average cb accounts (just saying)

 

Sorry for the heap of questions, just want to be safe.. thank you in advance

If they accounts arent in the same locations i would say it would be fine for 2-3 and what ISP do you have? some "dynamic" IPs are called "sticky" and only change if you ask your ISP to do it for you.

otherwise most "dynamic" IPs will change whenever the router is reconnected. 

It depends on your ISP how long you will have a certain IP, resetting your router won't work with all of them. If you go to your router settings you there is a section that tells you your lease time, which is how long until you get assigned a new IP I think. Mine is 1 day...

i have comcast, i hope this is not the case that i need to contact them.. but even if so i could do that after my first ban i guess
