I found the site and tried to check, but it wouldn’t show me anything without being logged in, so I created an account. Now that I’m signed in though, I can only find vague rules, like

The User’s account is for personal use only. Only the individual who holds the account is allowed to connect on it. Connections to the User’s account are recorded so that we can detect account sharing. The User agrees to keep his login secret, We won’t offer technical support for account hacking.

How does this work with a phone or laptop, for example? What if I sign in at my parents house when I visit for a few days?

Can anyone help please?

    You can use it on as many devices as you want, as long as they have the same IP address. The service will not work if you log in from 2 separate IPs, and you could get banned for that. As long as someone isn’t streaming from your home IP, you can log in while visiting your parents to watch. Basically just make sure if you use multiple devices they are on the same Internet connection.

    If you go to the help section and search for “IP” you can get more info!

      This is what I also have AD, as backup and when I’m travelling for work.

      I keep RD just for the house.

        AD is a good service, it’s just a shame the library tends to be smaller. I use Easynews as a backup to my RD, luckily so far haven’t needed to actually use it!

          To be fair as a backup I’ve almost never used it, but I travel quite a bit for work so it gets used when I’m travelling so there’s never a risk of sharing IPs on RD.

      Thanks for replying :)

      I had a feeling that it would be something like that, but I get a bit paranoid about setting up new services sometimes.

      I don’t know how I missed the part in the help section though >.<
