    Come on SE...

    I have three different addresses and I travel frequently to each during the week. Each time I try to log into FFXIV from a different IP address, my account is suspected of suspicious activity and I have to reset my password. So during the week, I may have to reset my password a few times. This is getting very irritating, anyone know a way around this?

    Actually I have a security token, and this has happened to me despite what the site clearly says. A token won't necessarily stop it, but it might occur less often, I don't really know what the deal is.

    OP, maybe you can talk to customer support and see if they can't flag your account to stop it from happening or something. I don't think this feature should go away because it offers at least one more layer of account protection.

    The token stops it unless you are in a different country or something, but even then I logged in from two different states and had no issues with the token.

    Happens to me too, It's irritating but at the same time I'm glad they have it just in case. Security tokens are only for people who don't have much knowledge of computers. It's practically impossible to get hacked unless you are naive enough to download a trojan or keyloger onto your computer. Don't waste your money on a token unless you don't know better about such things.

    The IP checker is just a nice feature to have in case someone you've burned a bridge with who used to live with you some how managed to get your password, and now that shes not living with you anymore and you've broke up with her she logs on your account and deletes your main...
