[QUOTE=Catdaemon;34306492]Should've left it open and rewritten all the pages to that instead. Then when they complain you can just say you didn't give them permission to connect gg.
But really, it's an SSID. If I wrote that on a post-it and stuck it on a wall I don't think it'd receive this much attention. They're never going to find out who wrote it.[/QUOTE]
Somehow, I think you would.
Right down to taking the papper to a lab to find out who it was.
My wifi is called Monkeys2011.
My mom named it :suicide:
Mines named gay porn, that why leechers feel insecure about connecting to my SSID.
Funny, we named our Wi-Fi FBI Secure Server. :V
My wifi is named "JESUS CHRIST MY HOUSE IS ON FIRE"
[QUOTE]I said, 'Did that say what I thought it said?," said the woman[/QUOTE]
I say
My WiFi names are "FBI Surveillance Van", "Get your own WiFi, nigga", "RIAA Headquarter WiFi" and "I have a better router than you" :v:
I don't have a wifi :V
What's the point of naming WiFi if you can't name it funny or offensive things?
I got a wifi name called "Ion Cannon Uplink #9" reference to command and conquer my favorite game. still tho.. no on in the area has commented on it.
DD-WRT lets you have virtual wireless interfaces pretty easily.
Time to offend a lot of people (I may have set my transmit power to three times the legal limit).

Why would anyone comment on that? It's not offensive.
[QUOTE=AceOfDivine;34307440]Why would anyone comment on that? It's not offensive.[/QUOTE]
How would anyone comment on that when nobody knows who's network it is and nobody gives a shit.
[QUOTE=latin_geek;34306575]If i ever get a wifi modem i'll name it a funny name.
Which one? No idea.[/QUOTE]
I have RCMP Surveillance Van 4
mine is GTFO_Freeloaders
ever since then there have been more funny names for wifi in my area
Mine is called the darkritualnetwork, I'm surprised the paranormal investigators haven't been round...
By the way, in my world dark ritual means taking a shit with the lights off which often results in "contact" with the "supernatural"
The FCC might have a case with this. It's similar to the laws on radio and television: you may own the router, but the FCC owns the airwaves that the router broadcasts over.
Good luck finding who did it. They probably changed their MAC address and made a batch file to do this or something.
My Wifi is called "GVT - Wifi for All", GVT is a brazilian ISP, and they probably get some people calling to ask why they can't connect to the free hotspot.
Oh please, I've ran Tethering hotspots off my phone with hilarious SSIDs.
I use this [url]http://www.ex-parrot.com/~pete/upside-down-ternet.html[/url]
[QUOTE=dbk21894;34306822]Also, why did the police even consider this as a serious case. If I got the call from that woman I would have laughed and hung up.[/QUOTE]
I laughed when she said they deserve jail time.

I call my wifi something where no one would try to hack it.
My WiFi is called "Helptheyarerapemeplzcallpolice2parkwooddrive"
They've had their door knocked in 4 times so far this month.
Dad controls our WiFi, but I do have 3 phones with bluetooth names called
"FBI SURVEILLANCE VAN 1"
"FBI SURVEILLANCE VAN 2"
"FBI SURVEILLANCE VAN 3"
He's not inciting violence or even suggesting it. How is this a crime?
mine is "The Above Signal is a Trap"

and FCC owns the airwaves that all sound waves travel through, so any sound they don't like, they just censor!
Used to have a network called Nuggets of Cheese.
Dad might have put names like these on it if he had thought of it though. :v:
