4 months ago I suggest setting define('e_SECURITY_LEVEL', 3); in ./e107_config.php. This turns off e107's sensitivity to changes in $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], so IP addresses changes should no longer be considered for de-authenticating a user.

Question
Hi
Well everything is in the title ! I have one user who is using a VPN with IP address changing in a round-robin. So he connect to the site, he can post one or two messages, and suddenly he is disconnected because his IP address changes !
Now I'm experiencing the same problem from my corporate network. Seems that IT service is using several "exit point" in our network, and, randomly, I'm disconnected from my site for the same reason: IP address have changed
This seems to be very specific to e107. I mean, I'm connected all day long to my Gmail inbox and never experience this problem. Same on other web site like github by example
Is there a solution ? An alternate login method which can avoid this issue ?
When you write a long message and posting to discover that you was disconnected and so the message is rejected and lost, believe me this is irritating
Best regards
