On release, although the authenticator was stated to trust the computer for 30 days if selected, it only did so for 14 days.The main advantage of using Authy is that you can easily log back into the app, continue receiving codes, retain the extra security, and not worry about if you get a new phone or mobile number, which doesn't risk problems logging back into RuneScape or require the need for Account support, like it could when using Google Authenticator. You can read about Authy on the support section of the official RuneScape site. Players who cannot scan the setup QR code, or just want an alternative may use Authy.Īuthy is an app trusted by Jagex, that has the same basic functionality as other applications like Google Authenticator, allowing for an extra layer of account security. After Jagex has sent the email containing a link to disable it, players will have to follow the aforementioned steps to set up the Authenticator on their new devices.Īlternative to using mobile phone for authenticator codes Players who have purchased new devices will have to re-download the app on their devices, disable the Authenticator via the RuneScape mainpage, and re-enable it. That is, it is suggested that the email be tied to a mobile device either by texting or a call before a new computer can gain access to said email. It is highly encouraged that the email associated with the account require two-step authentication so that the RuneScape authenticator can not be easily removed. Jagex sends an email containing a link to disable the authenticator to the email address registered for that account. To disable the authenticator, click on the "disable authenticator" link.
Players who choose to stop using the authenticator as the bank PIN revert back to the last 4-digit PIN used. Logging into the bank or the Grand Exchange from the RuneScape Companion app still requires the 4-digit PIN. However, the 4-digit PIN is not obsolete. Players can also choose to use the Authenticator for their bank PIN instead of the fixed 4-digit PIN.
RUNE 2 STEAM KEY CODE
Players can choose to trust the computers on which they play RuneScape for up to 30 days or choose to enter a code every time they wish to play. Jagex implements a 10-minute window (five minutes on either side of the actual time) to enter the correct code to allow for a possible lack of synchronisation between Jagex's server time and player devices. Once set up, players are prompted to enter the 6-digit time-based code whenever they log in to the game using an untrusted computer. The implementation generates a 6-digit code every 30 seconds based on the key and epoch time. Many mobile devices can read the barcode directly through their camera, which is equivalent to entering the Base32 string manually. Jagex generates a random 80-bit secret key unique to each user and presents it as a 2-dimensional barcode and as a 16-character Base32 string. To set up the RuneScape Authenticator, a player must visit the Authenticator landing page.
