    Possibly, but even if that's the case the ban won't stick, right? Since the actionable offense is key broadcasting and if there's no evidence of key broadcasting then no rules have been broken.

    That is assuming they have an easy enough way to analyze the interactions across all your clients in a manner that is definitive AND are going to take the time to review and "clear you".

    Blizzard can be inept, inconsistent, & lazy so I would not bet on it nor risk anything you don't mind losing.

    If I continue any 5boxing, until we learn more, I will likely be not doing any broadcasting nor multiplexing (neither hardware nor software) nor have any software like ISboxer installed & active anywhere and will likely be separating my activity as follows:

    • - Main WoW Account with my Collector's Editions on Primary PC on my regular network going out through my primary ISP connection; I will not log my main account on with any overlap with any boxing accounts and will avoid sending gold or items for awhile (consoldating now so won't need any for awhile).
    • - Separate 5box WoW accounts on my 2nd PC / Kid PCs going out over my Guest network over my backup ISP connection (my kid's friends always want to get on our wifi or on ethernet when here so I have a Guest network already). I may just start a new 4hunter+healer team on a new server for testing purposes for now and to add further sepration... I am also glad that all of my accounts are already on separate battlenets already.

    I already have 6 accounts active (actually 7 but I was thinking of stopping 1) so no extra cost/pain there. My characters are not setup exactly the way I would want as my main has been used in/with multiple teams so that kinda points me to a new team if I want to totally separate for now and go down to 6 accounts.

    Currently my 2 ISPs are in more of a A+B fail-over configuration and/or a load-balancing configuration for both my networks in my Security Gateway... I will just need to configure the Guest network to always go out through the "B" ISP connection and and may add a persistent VPN tunnel to another geographical location for the B connection just to add another layer of separation. I already have a VPN subscription but currently just turn it on when I want/need to so I just need to set it up to be persistent upon restart.
