Issue with Gmail

[Calypze]

I was checking my Gmail account's track of activity on the account. You know the small popup which shows if other IPs have been using the account and so. That popup usually tells me that my account doesn't seem to be open at any other place. However, today there was a clickable box saying that I should click on it to log out from other sessions (which I did). However, the latest few IPs of activity are all the same, from the same computer (i.e mine).

What does this mean? Do I have reason to worry?

If you've logged in from another computer or public terminal, thats the likely reason.

Do you have gmail on your phone as well?

I think you don't have to worry, but changing a password from time to time is never harmful :)

Actually no. Back then I only used one computer for Gmail.


Recenty though, I've moved, as I'm studying at a university in another city. At the university, this laptop connects wirelessly with the university network. At my room, it takes a cable.

The IP address seems to change from time to time, however, the intial XXX.XXX are always the same. Is this normal?

Yes. It means your campus is assigned a block of IP addresses that starts with the same six digits.
