Thanks for providing the screenshot! The error message:

"You have already used an API key on this IP address (240.73.91.5)"

means that another API key has already been used from your current IP address. Our system only allows ONE API key per IP for free users.

This can happen if:

  • You (or someone else on your internet/WiFi) used a different Pawan.Krd API key on this network before.
  • The website you’re using (e.g., JanitorAI) sends requests from their own server’s IP, not your local device’s IP. If many users access through the same website server IP, everyone gets this error.

How to Fix:

  1. If you’re using your own device's IP:

    • Make sure you’re not using multiple alternate API keys/accounts.
    • Don’t share your WiFi or network with others who use a different Pawan.Krd key.
  2. If using a website or VPN:

    • If the website you’re using (like JanitorAI) is proxying requests from a server IP, this is a site-side issue. You can try a different site (like VenusChat, ChubAI, or SillyTavern) that sends requests from your own device/IP.
    • Avoid using a VPN or proxy that others might also use with a different key.
  3. If this is your own clean network and account:

    • Try resetting your authorized IP on Discord:
