I don't think it matters much? Especially if the account was tied to KYC already. I doubt casinos would naturally assume that their users only play on one place/internet source. In the first place, online casinos are preferred because of it's accessibility, so tying it down to your home internet seems to defeat that point. Not to mention bans by IP only happen either due to geolocation issues or if some events/prizes were taken advantage of, both of which can easily be resolved and identified if proper KYC was done.
Ofc to be on the same side, you'd use what you normally have. And to generally not use public wifi for anything that has access to money related stuff.
Topic: Connecting to Public Wifi - page 4. (Read 363 times)
I visit the city here few weeks ago due to my personal medical appointment. I notice that they have public wifi because I’m only allowed to use my Tab as mobile device due to my eye condition.
I just thought playing a little bit gambling while waiting for my appointment but then I realized that online casino has a strict rules about IP sharing. I'm really skeptical to connect because I’m not sure whether someone connected on it that play on same online casino that I’m playing. I don’t want to risk being connected to someone randomly.
I want to get the opinion how casino deal with this kind of situation. If you caught up on this messed up situation, how can you possibly defend yourself to online casino operators?
When i do have those kind of doubts then i would just simply skip out on playing but if boredom strikes or something that there's nothing you can do then you would really be tending to touch up I just thought playing a little bit gambling while waiting for my appointment but then I realized that online casino has a strict rules about IP sharing.

on playing gambling then you wont care but since you are really that minding about IP sharing then better not to log in out. So far i dont have any problems when tending to log in with public WIFI
usually it would really be on airport or in bus terminals on which i do seldom connect when i dont have data connection yet most of the time im really that skeptical when it comes to this
because im really that afraid about possible exploits and possibel share up of information once you do log in with these public wifis.
Usually, casinos have strict rules when using different IPs, but I have never experienced this when going out of town and using public Wifi using the same device then it is not suspected at all, but when you change the device with another, let alone a different IP then the casino will suspect it usually they send an email about detecting a device trying to log in even if it's yourself but you are on a different device.
I don't think it's a big deal if it's just a fixed IP in your country, if it's more conscientious most also ask for KYC to make sure it's the real user.

I believe prevention is better than cure and better than defending yourself to online casino operators.I read some scam accusations against casinos about multi accounts. At the end of investigations and public information shared to community, casinos show that those cheaters use same IP addresses but they also provide more than that. Betting patterns of cheaters are similar and some other similar betting behaviors are enough for casinos to come to conclusions of cheating their platforms, bonus programs.
If you just use a public Wifi, you will probably have only one issue, same IP address with other gamblers. But I am really sure you will not want to have problems so don't use Public Wifi will be better.

You should avoid public WiFis in your personal devices. I am not saying this because of the casino’s IP restrictions, you should do this in order to get saved from scams. Many hackers and crackers often connected with these free public WiFis. Once a user connects its device to this wifi and if he does any transaction, then there is high risk that the hacker will know your payment method details. Hence always try to avoid using public wifi. And yes many casinos doesn’t allow to connect to the casino through these shared internet.
This is what I was thinking about in general and not just the measures that the casino could hypothetically take. It is very bad security practice to connect to public wifi. Use your data, and if you are abroad pay for roaming, it will be cheap compared to a hacker easily accessing your accounts.
I got banned from a certain casino before due to using a different account with the same device but not IP, this is when my wife tried to log in her account using my desktop computer to gamble. Note, my wife and I have a different account in the same website, and when I contacted their support about lifting the ban that's the reason they gave me even with us providing our identification. I'm not sure if it's risky or not but to be safe if you are not comfortable using a public wifi when gambling just don't do it as you know different casinos have their own set of rules and sometimes they bend it a little just to deny your winnings.
It's not a big deal as long as your IP is on the same country. Most of the address in the Philippines are dynamic IP's, so it could change from time to time but once you checked on this website https://whatismyipaddress.com/, you will know which country you are accessing from.
Based on my experience, one of the gambling sites that is quite strict regarding IP is stake.com, because it seems like I cannot access my account with other IP. Actually, I have 3 ISP in my home using a load balance set up, so from time to time, it wil change my IP and when stake doesn't recognize it, it won't direct me to their website, but as soon as I configure the network to dedicate only the IP I'm using when I created an account, problem solve. But I believe they'll allow different IP, I just hadn't explored it yet as I choose to go to an easy route.

Not sure about it though, but in my case, I usually don't use public wifi for anything though, specially gambling that might compromise my account. I'm also not sure about IP sharing, but for sure casinos might have to look at it and your betting history.
In any case, I might be careful with you and anyone playing using public WIFI.
Happy new year to all gamblers here, and I do hope that we will be having a good year this 2024.

Obviously you need to undergo additional KYC verification, you will be asked to comeback to that place and use the public IP, so they will know if you're not lying. They might ask a video call, just to make sure you're the same person.Quote

This is hard, I think you can only praying no one use public IP to access that casino. 
I think if you read the terms and conditions of the casino maybe you can find it there. After all why should the casino handle situations like this, isn't there another time for you to gamble at least in your leisure time or at home, why force yourself to try to gamble when you are around? medical appointment, it's in a public space and you are using public wifi the wrong way.
As a gambler you should not only know how to be a gambler, self-control is important, know when it is time to gamble and when it is time to relax or do something like you are doing because of a medical appointment, there are many things you can play on your cell phone besides gambling You don't have to try a little gambling that might harm you, the casino is not at fault, maybe you are at fault for not knowing how to find the right place to gamble.

Since every online casino has its own set of guidelines, I believe the choice eventually relies upon the operator of the casino. There's a risk that hackers will try to intercept our data when we use public Wi-Fi because it's frequently unsecured. We never know when we might be shocked to learn that an unauthorized transaction occurred in our account without our knowledge. If that is the case, we are about to be facing a major problem. In addition, certain online casinos have strict rules on using public Wi-Fi and if they find out that you have connected to an unprotected network, they may suspend your account.
If I were to play an online casino when I'm not at home, I would personally prefer to use mobile data. My personal information is safe and secure, and I feel more comfortable playing at that point.

I will not open private sites, including casino online if I connect my device to public wifi. I will only open general sites such as news and related matters. I know that there must be IP sharing by that public wifi. If the admins were strict about this, they would check each device.
I'd rather stick with the internet connection connected to my smartphone. That's safer because no one is connected to the device but me. Rather than taking risks and getting caught in such a messy situation, we should hold ourselves from opening such private sites.
Well, it was not a messed up situation. You also don't need to surf the Internet while you're in a public space @OP. It's best not to use any devices.

It depends on the casino operator; but not something I would recommend doing unless entirely necessary.
Although unlikely, they could always use it against you if you hit a Jackpot.
Then you would be out of luck.

The casino will just let it slide for now to just keep him playing until he gets the jackpot. I'd stay away to casinos doing this even if a casino is reputable. Those with threads like this.
Thats got to be a strategy of a casino once they see you win a big. A casino accusing a user of multiple accounts is not new. There are several threads of it in the forum.

In my opinion, IP stuff is only used to prevent promotion abuse and other multi-account stuff, so I don't think it will be used to deny your winnings. Even if they have suspicion on you, most likely you'll only need KYC with electricity bills and whatever else. I always play with a VPN since gambling is blocked here, and I never have any problem with withdrawal. The only case is when I won big using the site promotion, and only needed KYC to solve it.
If you caught up on this messed up situation, how can you possibly defend yourself to online casino operators?
Opening a thread on the scam accusation board will likely solve this problem if you play on sites that are active here.
A temporary change in IP address while using the same device that they recognize is actually a good point but I still wouldn't risk it. It's interesting that you thought of the possible violation of casino's terms first before the security of your account. It could be compromised from logging in using a public wifi right?
Casinos have a way to know the devices that you are using. Not only the IP address. If you have a certain IP address that you are using, but changed to public WiFi for just awhile, if your device is not the same, I do not think anything would be done to your account. But it is not recommended to use public WiFi for gambling. Even the public WiFi are spying on what you are browsing and not worth using.
