That someone filled out a problem report stating that you have different reviews under different names?

Can I log in from any computer?    
     
  I am traveling for a long time soon and am curious.

Does anyone know WHAT TO DO if more than 1 provider is living under the same roof using the same WIFI ??? Where i am living there are 6 studio units on this side... 3 of them rented by escorts.  
 WIFI is included in rent...so we all use the same 3 connections. There is also a guy few doors down that sees 1 of the girls that moved in recently.(not sure  who has TER accounts though and not sure if the guy only sees her or if he actually hobbies either. Im not friendly w them like that to know. I tend to stay to myself.  
  I have been a member since 2011 and never had a problem before...i just got am email saying that I have multiple accounts and that it isnt allowed. But i DONT. I have had the same 1 account the entire time.  I guess i can TRY to explain the situation but i have been living here for years and this never came up before. Noone uses my computer so it isnt that. Has to be the connection.  
 Basically...i dont want to get on trouble or banned for something that i have no control over.    My reviews are incredibly important to me and my business. Ugh.

They are strict about not wanting people to share the same computer, and people having multiple accounts, but I have always wondered about shared wifi, since they track by IP addresses and shared wifi would show up as the same IP. I'm sure if you explain, it would be ok, but just make sure you get an ok from them first.

I had a similar issue where a client new to TER had a question and logged in on my hotel wifi. However, it was only brought to my attention because I was attempting to gain access to the Provider Only forums, which I know I cannot do still, to this day.  

Because of that one situation, though that member has only since wrote one other review, then remarried to his ex wife (talk about irony) and no longer hobbies as far as I know.

 
So, there is a large chance you will not be forced to forfeit your account, but you may not be allowed access to certain parts of the site.

VPN?

I am not a techie, but have you tried using a VPN app, such as Tiger VPN or Private Internet Access?  I know some sites won't allow you to login if using one but I'm not sure about TER.  

Just a thought...

You need to do what PerfectStorm said...

no matter what. There is already a record of multiple accounts from the same IP address. Only TER can sort that out for you.

Meanwhile, you can use TOR browser (google it) and/or a VPN (there are some decent free ones) to generate a unique IP address for yourself, even if you are sharing the same Wi-Fi connection with others.

Hobbyists/providers using the same hotel wifi, Sbux, etc. Even the NYC subway has wifi... I bet A LOT of people browse TER during long subway rides.  

And so many hobbyists and providers use TOR (I'm one of them)... while I could be assigned any one of literally thousands of IP's, it's definitely possible that a few people have found their way to the same 'exit node' or whatever.  

It's a lot easier for TER to track an individual machine, using cookies. I'd think that IP + cookie = definite match, but nobody should ever be banned because of IP address alone.
