//began rant
first... if you get a new router and it's a 'common' router like that damned 'linksys' you see EVERYWHERE... login to your lil router and CHANGE THE NAME OF YOUR NETWORK, damnit!!!
//end rant... which leads me to my next point...
//begin apology
to whoever has the same damned router and lives in the vicinity of Fullerton and Western (Chicago area)...please forgive me? As I just plugged in my new router, I was not patient enough to wait for it to appear on the list of available networks. I accidentally logged into your router and renamed it 'Clown Baby'.I'm sorry... for some reason I can't log back into it now - even w/my network completely shut off. I can however give you directions on how to rectify the situation. On the back of your router is a lil itty bitty hole w/a cute lil button in there - press and hold that fucker for about 30 seconds and SHA-ZAM!...network reset... THEN... LOGIN TO YOUR NETWORK AND RENAME IT!!!
Randd more than likely blesses you...Pony
//end apology

if you see a wireless network named linkysys ..
the password is admin (leave username empty)hack into it..
only an idiot wouldn't change initial out-of-box security settings.- An idiot, or just an average Joe who doesn't really understand and knows no better. 'Cretin', another label.detritus

I don't understand why anyone broadcasts their ssid as well.

I use linksys all the time whenever my connection is shit. It's actually faster.

ours at home keeps switching itself off - probably due to the vast number of wankers that have colonised the high-rise opposite.
I renamed our network to "getTaeFuck", nothing like neighbourly love I find. Other names that have come into consideration have been:
Virus-4-Free
Infected
ChavHacker
NigeriaNet
