I paid for a home broadband dongle from 02 yesterday and the connection speed is pathetic, it takes 5 mins to load my facebook homepage, i was really dissapointed until i viewed the available networks and found that it picked up 5 wireless signals, out of those 5 only 1 is unlocked and the signal is very low, however the connection is 54mb per second so its well rapid. there are other networks with a more reliable connetion but they are locked, i was wondering if anyone has tried this software and could give me the lowdown and does it actually work
... while you're at it, why don't you just hack their systems and steal CC#s to pay for a better connection for yourself. They are locked for a reason - so people like you won't steal their bandwidth.
I dont know where you live, but accessing a network without permission could be a crime. Its not worth being arrested or going to jail over. http://www.clickorlando.com/news/9411597/detail.html
If it is left open, then I use it, if it is locked then I respect that and don't try to use it. Hell, I'm typing this while using someone in my buildings connection...
If someone else unlocks our connection and send threatening mail to some others, then only we will feel the pain. So even if a connection is on unlock condition, don't use it. May be the guy who owns it don't know how to lock it.
It's not a matter of how much they use per second. They pay for it, and lock it so others won't use it. A lot of ISPs limit the bandwidth per month or even charge per bandwidth used.
54mbps is your connection to the router, not the download speed you get from the broadband internet. If you connect a RJ45 ethernet cable from your LAN to your computer, it supposedly can support speed up to 100mbps.
A good rule of thumb is that software which facilitates "questionable" activity is always going to leave you open to attack in some way.
you should think about it more and you'll realize that it's not right ...I don't know if being in their shoes, you'll agree with this
POOH LOVES HUNNY Have you considered the possibility that your neighbour is running a honey pot and is monitoring EVERYTHING that you run through his/her network? Email passwords DP login/password Banking passwords MySpace/Facebook passwords blablabla etc etc
LOL - you should see my neighbours and you would be rolling on the floor, but hey i dont put anything on the internet im not willing to loose anyway so.....
whatever the name of it ,its still means of prohibited activity.no law will be stand out to hold your legal opinion to win the court knock in down the table.alternatively you should move to available hot spot you could get it"freely -legally to your near mall or cafe
