What Are The Consequences Of Securing A Page Based On Ip Address Rather Than Using A Db-driven Login System?

For instance, if I have a page that only shows itself to certain ip addresses, I know that it will not be as safe as a db-driven login system, but, can a hacker abuse my system?

  Many people connect with dynamic addresses. That means the address they use is different every time they connect. Also, the address they had last time will be recycled to someone else.
  If you give access to a specific IP, every person in the future who gets that IP will be allowed.

  An IP address is relatively easy to spoof. It is not normally an authenticated identity.
