Investigators tracked the IP address to 28-year-old Keith Alan Arms Jr.
Police searched Arms' home and seized three electronic devices, officials said. Child sexually abusive material, including photos and videos, was found on his phone, authorities said.
Arms was charged with one count of using a computer to commit a crime, five counts of distribution of child sexually abusive material and five counts of possession of child sexually abusive material.
He is charged as a habitual offender because he has two prior fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct convictions.
Arms' bond was given a $1 million bond. A probable cause conference is scheduled for Sept. 10.
