If your home has 5 pcs but only one IP. And each pc created a FB account. Would FB cancel some of the accounts?

Probably no. 5 people using different accounts over one IP should be pretty normal family style. Many more (maybe even 10) may give issues.

just get dynamic ip (3g Usb Dongle and Simcard, then Register to a Internet Bundle), it will solve all your making accounts problem.

each pc has different device id, cookies, browsing history so i don't think fb will ban all accs.

Facebook only sees the IP your internet provider assigned you - so all 5 accounts work over a single IP. It works for famlies, but not for serious IM activity.

Universities has only 1 ip and 1000 of students using Facebook. None of them get blocked. Reason: their activity is not linked.

You said it right.

Yeap - exactly - they are not doing same activity same intervals and so on - FB checks users behavior and more smart things then IP

They can definitely detect it. The question is, will it be an issue? I don't think so. FB is the largest site in the world... they have much worse stuff to deal with than this.
