SWTOR One-time Password
« on: April 10, 2013, 04:18 PM »
Every time I log in to SWTOR it always asks me  "Enter the One-time Password sent to your email address", because I thought one-time mean once not every-time :/

Heh, that's a tad odd. Do you connect from different IPs often?

Nope always use the same IP, someone else in my house plays SWTOR on the same IP and he only had the question once.

That's weird. I'm trying to think of why something like that could happen, but nothing comes to mind. Anyone else got a clue?

I've only heard some people complaining this is ridiculous, but I have no idea why this kind of thing would happen. Maybe it has something to do with your mate... I'll try to find out.

He only got it once, but he's on a desktop and I'm on a laptop do you think that could have anything to do with it?

I found out that you can get rid of this by purchasing a security key. Either the physical one, or the app.

You get the one-time password because TOR thinks someone is trying to hack your account. Especially this happens if you share the ip with someone, and that someone played first (or plays more, or such). Nothing you can do about it, other than the security key (which is essentially a one-time password generator :P)

I get this when i try access the forums at work, and I'm pretty sure it's something to do with the fact i have cookies disabled. Not sure why it does that with your game though.

The security keys are only £2.99 but they are out of stock so it looks like I have to download the security app as I already have to use my phone to get the e-mail for the one time password.

I downloaded the SWTOR Security Key App on my iPhone and it has stopped asking me for the one time password, So it all sorted now :)
