What's really fun.....
« on: August 14, 2010, 07:23:01 PM »
What's REALLY fun is setting up your computer at your new apartment, knowing you won't have your own internet connection for at least 5 days, then configuring your wireless router to be a repeater for one of the two existing wireless signals that AREN'T secured and getting a sometimes spotty, but very sufficient internet connection.

Damn these people and their locking down of their wireless AP's.

What is even more fun is accessing their wireless router setup and changing the password so that they can't lock you out.
Never, but never question the engineers judgement.

If they haven't changed it from the default password when it was purchased they are kind of asking for it.

No they are not.  Maybe you should tell them that they should change their password so asshats don't change it on them.

Leeching is one thing. But going in and changing settings and passwords is total blackhat.

Nah, the only routers I would mess with are owned by Maelor and Aldius, and Aldi uses an air card.... so no go with that one. Besides, I don't even own a black hat. I own a hat that's got a goofy pumpkin face on it, but that's all.

Change their default network name to Secure Me Now!

What if bodies just had random errors like computers do?
You go to receive your Starbucks coffee and accidentally punch the Barista in the face then Crap on the floor.
What kind of Fudgeing computer errors are you getting?

Someone just moved into the area and has a open AP called "Belkin_G+MIMO_Wireless_E56881." They seem to be physically close to my apartment, as well. I'm getting pretty decent speeds when it comes to loading web pages whereas the other networks would be hit or miss when it came to holding a stable connection with them. Good thing Comcast is supposed to be stopping here tomorrow!
