Do AT&T hotspots work for changing your IP?

[FallenAlone]

I bought 100GB hotspot from AT&T because its what I used in the past too cheese.

I haven't played Rust in 7 or 8 months, decided to get back into it by playing legit. I made a new GMAIL, made a new steam account, bought Rust off of the Steam store. Played 2 hours on Rustified main and got banned "Player EAC banned" or something like that.

I wasn't using any cheese, I was running reported.lol spoofer (figured it wasn't the spoofer, surely right?) and I was using my hotspot....

It surprised me really. So I wanted to check my hotspot so I disconnected it and noticed when I disconnected it, my computer AUTO switched to my WIFI. My main WIFI IP is banned, but I am almost certain I was connected to my hotspot the whole time. Could my hotspot have disconnected by itself while I was playing and my computer switched to my WIFI or has EAC and Rust did some update to detect hotspots?

I really want to get back into the game legitlly as I am about to move to a new home and get a fresh IP and figured I'd just run a spoofer (reported.lol) until I build a new PC.

Any help would be great thank you.

Thanks in advance.

Try disabling WIFI through your motherboard (or wifi adapter) and connect to your hotspot using USB tethering, by plugging your phone to the PC. This is the case IF your ban was actually related to IP.

If the issue was with reported spoofer then you'd most likely get banned from the game, not just Rusified servers, so you can rule spoofer detection out. And since you're not using any cheats, it's most likely an IP related ban, check if you're game banned or only banned on specific servers.

You can also try resivpn although hotspot is the best if you have the data plan for it.

Thank you. I’ll give it a try today to confirm what it was.
