Would multiple PCs in an office share the same IP

Usualwill · 06-09-06, 09:54 AM

I've got a couple of people at work who are interested in sigining up but who don't have access to a PC at home. The only access they have is from work. Each of them accesses the internet through their own separate desktop PC (they don't share PC's) but I'm wondering if there would be any IP address problems. Its an office of 3000+ people so I'm guessing the network uses a whole range of IP's but I'm not sure how it all works, would each PC with internet access have its own IP or could they be shared?

Any advice would be great as I don't want these referrals to run the risk of breaking any of the interclickz terms and conditions.

Thanks

We have 3 computers hooked up at home and they all use the same ip, but i duno what it would be like in a company. :S

Regardless of the environment you still have to abide by our TOS.

1. Membership

1.5 Accounts are limited to one per person, IP and/or residential address.
1.6 Access to more than one account on the same IP and/or computer is strictly prohibited.

If in doubt get them to sign up from home.

Thanks for the feedback and thats exactly why I was checking - so that TOS are not broken.
I'm not sure how a big network of PC's in a company accesses the internet and as I mentioned they can't access from home (hard to believe I know!)

Maybe I'll ask one of the techies - assuming they have a clue!!

was just thinking: regardless of how it effect us most of our sponsors keep a check on multiple signups from the same IP. May effect offer tracking(?)

Make sure you don't get caught - most companies have a dim view on playing on casino sites while working.

i am sure you cna check your IP on your computer, through internet options or something. Just check it on different PC's and it should be clear if they are the same.

The easiest way to check at work is go to:

Id say 99.9% likely that all the computers in the office will share the same IP as they will go through a router of some description...

I would say yes, the only chance of it being a no is your company has over 1000+ pc's on the site then I can see them being broken into smaller groups of ip clusters (hope that makes sense!)
