If you teleport to another city, you need an IP address to match the city you're in by using a VPN. If your home city is Los Angeles, CA, you should only be walking around in your city from your home WIFI. If you want to go to San Diego, CA, you need to use a VPN app with a San Diego IP address to walk around in San Diego even though you're playing from home in Los Angeles. You will need to wait several hours to days before going to another city or country as if you were planning to go there by driving or taking a plane.


What about in the lower mainland in BC?

I've spoofed from Surrey to Vancouver, two different cities, 30 minutes apart in fair traffic. But I did it on Wi-Fi. Yay. :-/ Not banned tho ;)

I guess that's fine 30 minutes apart but don't go from Canada to the USA from your home WIFI without a VPN.

Spoof gps, stay on wifi.

Easy detect.

But they haven't run that banwave yet. They've banned for gps spoofing apps, but not for conditions like staying on the same wifi and running around a city.

Why?


simple answer, wifi hotspot devices such as the att mifi. or hotspot sharing. lets say you have your cellphone that has a 2gb data pool but you have a wifi hotspot device that has a 20gb data pool. if you connect to the hotspot device the phone is technically using wifi even though its still a cellular connection via another device. they would ebd up banning lgit players.
