2 step authentication means that you must have access to the code to login from a new IP address.
It is by far the most effective way of securing your account
(we have not yet had a single verifyable report of a player being hacked who had ::2step enabled)
 
Should you try to login to your account from a new IP address you will be prompted to enter your 6 digit code off your app or chrome extension.

This number goes in the 'auth box' to below of where you enter your username and password (see Auth:123456)
