Unhappy "Your IP Address has been temporarily blocked"

Hey there.. I am currently staying at an upscale hotel that has WiFi access.. I have never had issues playing since I have been here. I bought my brother a computer tonight so he could play with me on the Project 99 server and when he is logged in to HIS account, I can not log in to mine.. Mind you, we have 2 SEPARATE accounts, but as long as he is logged in it gives me the message "Your IP has temporarily been blocked, please try again later." If he logs out, I can log in just fine... The hotel staff are telling me the internet here shares the same master IP Address so the server thinks im logging in the same account twice I think... Please tell me there is a fix for this!!!

You do not indicate whether you petitioned to allow access by two accounts from the same IP address. Given that you are posting to Server Chat rather than Petitions, I suspect this is your problem.

The good news is that this is a feature, not a bug.

The bad news is that turnaround time on this type of petition can be days or weeks.

Maybe a good option for you is to tether your cell phone to one of the laptops as a modem.

If you have a smart phone this is usually and option.

EQ takes remarkably little data. After about 20 hours I had 700mb used data.

You will need a smartphone with the option and possibly have to call your carrier to enable the tether feature. That or go buy a mobile internet stick from your carrier and use that.

I have 2 different sticks to access the wifi in the hotel... my brothers computer which is in front of mine, has a Belkin Wireless USB Adabter and I have a Netgear one... I don't quite understand why we are pulling the same IP Address... Is there ANYTHING that can be done OTHER than waiting for "access" by the server admins? The ISP here said that we have different IP's but the "master" one or whatever is the same... Any help would be MUCH appreciate!

If they're all hitting the same router, then they have the same IP. Check both your IPs @ http://www.whatismyip.com/

You may have to take him to Mcdonalds or something :P

Think of IP's like names, each computer has a first name, and the main line to the isp Via the router is like a last name. P99 only lets one last name play at the same time.

I've been waiting for over a week for an IP exemption as well- It'll probably take a while.

As the hotel staff indicated, they have one IP address. If you are using the hotel for internet, you have that internet IP address. This is the common scenario for hotels.

Corradojeff's "mobile internet sticks" are not the wifi adapters (Netgear, Belkin) that you mentioned, but cellular (usually 3G) adapters that are part of mobile phone/data services.
