Mask/Hide IP?


[link to this post]
 
Is there a way to do this??

My and my bro play CS:S from the same zen adsl connection so we both have the same IP... so in games we both get blinded or kicked for "Ghosting on another players IP"...

Is there any way to be able to stop this or get round it?!?

Thanks

Ok, to the best of my knowledge the answer to your original question is no. Unless you use a proxying service which will

a) cost
b) introduce huge unplayable lag

Longshot but if you've got 2 copies of CSS with two keys you could email steam and tell them about your issue so they could inform their server checker not to kick you both off.

It isnt VAC though that does that is it?

I'm pretty sure its the 3rd party security mods.

It isn't steam doing it, It is usually the specific server and it is upto the admin if they want to allow you to play on the same IP.

It can give you an advantage if you can see where the other playes are when one of you is dead so fair enough really, you will have to set your router up in routedIP and have 8ips from Zen, the other options arn't really practical.

This is definately the only workable solution.

You have hit on the one issue that home users really do need an 8-IP block to resolve.

Or - you could play on a different server without the mod.... Or even play on different servers from each other..... Or start your own server..... Or play a different game....or take up knitting....Or go out for a walk.

Lot's of alternatives without needing an IP-block
