Can my wife and I play together?

[PowaGamer]

I read that there is no multiboxing which is fine but if it only lets you have 1 account per IP adress does that mean that my wife and I can't play together?

i never understood this IP address crap. i thought that even if you are using the same router or modem, dont you still have separate IP addresses?

You have a different IP address 'behind' your router/modem (inside your house), but to the external world you have 1 IP address. The one 'behind' your router/modem will be in a special range of IP address blocks that are reserved for private networking, most likely 192.168.<SOMETHING>

its not a question of being a two boxer. just need to understand that with an ip exemption you never go afk with both accounts logged on or you most likely have a 99% chance of being banned without any chance of fighting it

I don't think this is really the case. I play with my husband, so we obviously have an IP exemption. I wouldn't dare XP with one of us afk or anything like that, but as far as just hanging out, he frequently plays while I auction afkish while studying or helping kiddos with something. Hasn't been a problem. I assume we're watched enough to know that we are indeed two separate people and not a boxer. I figure they must have other signs beyond someone just being afk to set off their radar. /shrug

They do.
