  I'm curious to know what people name their networks at home. Are they funny? Inside jokes? Do they mean something?

  I always laugh when someone from my MIS Department has to check why my computer won't connect at work and sees all the past networks I've been on. My friends had one called "Fuck Beans" which led the one guy to go, "I don't even want to know." Haha. Basically there was a network "Beans" that they used until he put up security.

  I had "GO TEAM SHAKE!" for awhile but I just changed it to, "Poupée de cire, Poupée de son." Because it has the word poopie in it twice.

  Any good ones?

  This is not a network name ... but a funny password name. So my girly booked some plane tickets online. Long story short something came up and she had to cancel them so she has to call up the airline (because she could not do it online for some reason). Anyway, I was sitting next to her, as she was talking to the airline, when they ask for her password. She studders a bit says "what... my password". She turns bright red and whispers "poopyhead" into the phone.

  When I was without broadband... I set up a wireless network with the same name as another one around where I was living with the hope they'd get annoyed, re-configure and drop the security on theirs.

  change the name to 'wash your shitty honda" or "lose weight fatty" or something on a personal level aimed at annoying neighbours.

  On the off chance you dont have annoying neighbours I guess "your wife has nice tits' could work

  • hahaha at "wash your shitty honda" dont know why i found that so funny– 7341/2

    haha, that is great.– flavorful2/2

  milo. named after the cat. i keep mine unsecured, but tie it to mac address, so people think they can connect but sit there forever and never get an IP. i hope it frustrates them. i am small in this way.

  hahah these are pretty good. I am always hesitant to put something, "YOU ARE THE ONES WHO ARE THE BALL LICKERS!" or something just outright vulgar.

  The people around here just name them after their own names. Or hockey players...

  i used to work for a company with greek gods as server names. our main file server was named apollo(world on his shoulders). inevitably, one day apollo crashed, seems he couldnt handle carrying all that weight.

  • If I had a lot of computers, I would do this me thinks. Albeit correctly. :D– flavorful1/2
