Guild Wars 2

It says “since you are logging with new IP bla bla” and asks me to validate identity trouch email… Will i have to check email each time to log in? I have dybamic IP so its natural i will be logging with different IPs…

Even with a dynamic IP they’re still assigned from a relatively common block, usually the first 2 or first 3 octets remain the same as your ISP is given a specific block of IP addresses it can hand out and your first route will typically remain the same. I’d say it’s unlikely you’ll have to authenticate all the time.

I’ll assume by Dynamic IP you mean DHCP. Your local IP address, such as 192.168.xxx.xxx or 10.0.xxx.xxx etc. is the IP that can change.

However – your ISP (internet service provider) has almost certainly given you one public IP address. That is the address that the game will check, and is the address that Arena Net security will see and know about. Thus, you shouldn’t see the prompt every time.

@Venor – Some ISP’s still use dynamic IP’s to prevent their users from making webservers on their side of the line. I know of UPC and Alice doing it in the past (no UPC user for a real long time now and Alice is no more in Holland).

This is something that would interest me too.

Over here in Germany ISPs generally reset the IP address every day. This and the general buggyness of this game is keeping me from using this service.

Thanks DemiGoth. I was aware it was done by some ISPs, but I don’t know how widespread it is.

It would be good in this case if we knew what localization information is checked for the security email to be generated.

This was my assumption as well when the OP was referring to a Dynamic IP.
