You have connected from different IPs, but did you do this from the same work station (i.e. PC)?
When logged in, the plug-in sets a cookie, so that you can log in more than once from the same work station. The connection IP doesn't matter.
You can switch this off by setting the plug-in to 'strict mode' in its configuration (Plugin Parameters back-end).
Just to be sure: log out all instances before you change to 'strict mode'.
Only Once! does not affect Super Administrator accounts, these can always have multiple log-ins. So make sure you test with a non-Super Admin account.
Please let me know your results.
