- easytiger 7y agois your IP dynamic? could be someone else on the same isp. Perhaps cgnat?
- peteretep 7y agoThe other explanation is that your ISP doesn't give you a static IP, and customers of your ISP have had this IP.
- sincerely 7y agoI just turned the router off and on again and the IP is the same :$
- zanny 7y agoYour IP is assigned on rotation by your upstream ISP, your router doesn't get to pick when the address changes unless you contact them and ask to have it changed.
- cgriswald 7y agoMy ISP assigns me the same IP address for months at a time before changing it seemingly at random. Without knowing how long you’ve had that IP address and how long the linked site keeps data for, it’s not really meaningful information.
- olalonde 7y agoMaybe your ISP is using carrier-grade NAT? [0] [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-grade_NAT https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-grade_NAT
- gabriel34 7y agokeep an eye on that list, the last seen column should tell you if this is current of ancient activity, if he/she is seeding, correlating this with times your roommate is home (or his/hers pc on) should give you a good idea of whether this is him/her or someone else sharing your IP. Another such file coming up on that list is a strong indicator as well, and could help you even if he/she is no longer seeding. Keep in mind that remote control of a torrent client is possible. If you control the router you could try getting a new IP. All this without downloading the actual file
- sincerely 7y agoThanks for the advice I'll keep an eye on it. As far as I'm aware he's home basically 100% of the time so that unfortunately doesn't help narrow anything down lol
