There are no valve / steam employees or staff, server techs, steam support, or moderators in this steam related user to user only sub-forum.

Also the IP limiter is working as intended.

--- too many page requests ----

IP Rate limiter. Prevents bombarding of the marketplace and inventory servers by users with browser add on's, Bots, and off site skin / item trade sites.

Too many page requests from the same IP address. Your assigned ipv4 address is a shared IP address, so other users of your isp with the same ip address assigned are causing the ip limiter to be tripped. Steam support can not help you with this problem. You need to change your assigned IP address.

You hit an API quota limit. This quota limit is IPv4 based. If restarting your router doesn't help, you'll have to wait it out.

IPv4 addresses are not unique anymore. As there are more humans (8 billion) than IPv4 addresses (4.2 billion), ISPs have chosen to route users together on an identical IPv4 address. This technique is known as CGNAT.[en.wikipedia.org]

For Valve's inventory and community market API this bundled together group of users using CGNAT or Dual Stack Lite looks like a single user.

If you waited several days to weeks, your only recourse is getting a public IPv4 address. It doesn't matter whether this one is static or dynamic. Ask your ISP on how to obtain one.

If you already have a public also known as dedicated IPv4 address, you should stop spamming inventory actions.


If your ISP supports ipv6, then turn off ipv4... This will also help solve the problem.

to see if your ipv6 is active go here:
