Pr*xy Tunneling Service

[Shtwht?]

So wondering, as i dont know alot about V-P-N's and/or setting them up, will a Pr*xy tunneling service to (better my wow ping) provide me with an ip different to my standard isp ip?

 

[nooblet]

pretty sure ***** is only web-based, although i'm not 100% sure

 

[Shtwht?]

I currently use a pr*xy tunneling service to reduce my wow latency so that's why I'm asking. As i can set it up so my laptop runs the pr*xy and main machine doesn't.

 

[CodenameG]

its not worth it, some people find comfort in tunneling some of their wow sessions away from their home ip, but for the most part its a waste. i mean your running a bot, not raiding where low ping would be better.

 

[nooblet]

try doing an IP check without the tunnel and then so another with it running. If the IP is different then

just google myip

 

[Shtwht?]

I understand it might not be worth it but i pay $20 for this pr*xy a year. so im not really concerned if its a waste or not, more so if it flags the machine with a different IP.

Only problem is the tunnel is purely active when running wow so im not sure i can use that website to check?

As far as it is the same machine, it doesn't help anything -> HWID.

different machine, 1 desktop 1 laptop.

What exactly are you trying to achieve by tunneling?

I use a tunneling service for 2 reasons:
1. I get a much better ping in-game by doing so. Without tunnel its around ~300-400 ish. When I use the tunneling service its around ~170-250.
2. Given the mesh download issues right now I have much better results download mesh files when I use a tunnel than when I don't.

Tunneling will give you a different external (public) IP address. But your hardware ID will remain the same.

 

[Shtwht?]

So basically what im asking...

I have 2 machines at home,

1 Desktop
1 Laptop

Im on cable net so my connection to wow isnt exactly bad, i primarily used the pr*xy at times (originally) when my service was on the fritz a bit, however
now i dont use it as much but i get it for $20 a year i might as well use it for another purpose.

Now i am thinking, being im a scrub and have NO IDEA how to setup a V-P-N, can i use the laptop running the pr*xy server, separate from my desktop to achieve a secondary IP
meaning my laptop will have a different IP then my desktop (public IP) to protect my genuine account, as Ive seen situations that using your main account and bot account on the same
machine results in both accounts being locked down..

OR do i not even need the pr*xy on the laptop, does it have an independent public IP already? As its a different machine (im pretty sure being they run through the same router the public IP
is the same though?) TBH as i said i have NFI about this stuff so thats why im asking.

Basically wanting to run 2 accounts 1 bot, 1 genuine, but trying to keep my genuine account as safe as possible.

I never play wow on my laptop anymore since i upgraded my desktop, tho the laptop is more then capable of running the bot.

Yes.

Yes.

You'r on a good way

 

[Shtwht?]

Yes.


Yes.

You'r on a good way

To your first yes, that sounds awesome.

To your second yes, is that a yes to me NEEDING the pr*xy? or NOT needing the pr*xy? im going to go ahead and assume you mean YES i NEED the pr*xy, but we
all know to assume something is to make an ASS (out of) U (and) ME. lol

... to protect my genuine account, as Ive seen situations that using your main account and bot account on the same

This is incorrect. Or there are extenuating circumstances around both accounts being banned.

I have lost many many many (far too many to count) accounts as a result of botting. I use my non-botted accounts and my botted accounts on the same network, with the same public IP. Blizzard are very good, from extensive personal expierence, at only banning botted accounts and leaving the non-botted accounts alone.

hmm previously i used a different bot and went a little silly with it, this resulted in my account being banned and my Fiance's account being banned and she never botted a second in her life.

The Hardware ID will be the same but if you use V P N 's and a Virtual Box you can change your Hardware ID I have 6 VB's open at a time all with a different V P N IP

All and all it really comes down to how much do you act like a bot while using HB? If you are playing 6 hours a day on your none bot account and 18 hours a day on a botting account they them will look at it and go....hmmmmm.....

Not saying your wrong, but i cant exactly be incorrect when Ive had it happen to me, although i will admit the reason i was given wasn't an IP ban it was abuse of economy, but when i have less then probably 20 auctions every 2-4 weeks on the AH, it makes no sense.

But definitely had 2 accounts banned off the 1 computer, and might i add they don't interact with one another directly either.

This is the reason i was asking about the ***** on the laptop as i have NO IDEA (im a dumb shit with v P N's) how to set one up, and this was an option already available to me so i figured id ask.

(Using the Pr*xy server to generate a different public IP on the laptop while not using my main account on the laptop and only on the desktop)

I have 25 accounts -- 0 have been banned not even a suspension but they all bot like a human would play with a max of 8 hours a day with 2 log outs.
