as long as its a vpn, then yes, it should tunnel the traffic elsewhere, and therefore, not letting your original ip be shown.
Thanks for your reply I'm not sure if it's a VPN or not, I don't think so. WoWTunnels - Lower Your Ping, The Easy Way. Thats their website. It's basically used to re-route the traffic for better a better ping, but I'm unsure if it actually hides my IP or it doesn't, some people say it does, some people say it don't :/ There's also alternatives like lowerping and wtfast, but I think these all work the same.
If you only want to hide your IP for a few minatues I recommend using hotspot shield as it is free and easy. I am unsure of the quality of WoWtunnels but I see there is a free trial which you can use so I would use that and go to whatsmyip.org to see if there is a change when using it.
It's for quite a few hours I need it. Wowtunnels only works for the WoW Application, not for internet browser so I cannot test if it hides my IP or reroutes it.
While knowing nothing about this service, I'll go ahead and assume they use public servers, so you'll be sharing the same ip with a lot of people. Not sure if bad or good.
FYI WoWTunnels is not annon tunneling... guy that runs it was friend of mine back in day and he actualy was shut down for a lil while because of blizzard sueing him or some crap because he was annon tunneling. So he opened it up to repeating and they let him continue... but that was bout 3ish years ago. Soooooo it might of changed back to annon but just a heads up.
Oh for the love of god - Blizzard does not use IP-banning as a method simply because it is not viable.. I could go explain this but it has been discussed 15615 times already.
They dont ip ban unless you did something major like prob that guy who hacked and killed everyone in wow all at once lol. They want to milk you by banning you to buy more accs.
i have very good reason to believe they use IP in an investigation to link accounts. 6 accounts get banned at once. either--they used my IP to search out and link my other accounts in a botting investigation or--i just randomly got all 6 to the threshold of being banned and they decided to ban them all at the same time by accident or--warden just waits until some random number of offenders is reached to mass ban many accounts to save on paperwork.
How about you look what they had in common - for example: the most common thing you can possibly get -> sell gold --> blizzard looks at 50k trade ( even by guildbank ) wtf where did this gold come from ? hey those guys put that on the gbank.. #insta ban. case closed. ASIDE FROM THAT - there are countless possibilities. Now go put back and put on your tinfoil hat. Learn from your bans - don't be a fool and say you got IP-banned. Before you go all blah blah didn't sell gold hue hue - that was an EXAMPLE.
