    haha , you can't beat wifi. Its crazy to think that info is just transfered over these invisible air waves. Using a wire feel so primitive. I can't even imaging plugging my laptop into anything except my charger!

    Wifi is awesome! Except sometimes it's annoying when it disconnects and reconnects, etc, etc ;)

    I don't trust it. I'm always scared it's going to lose signal or something while I'm downloading or online gaming.

    WEP password should be okay. But when you use authentication, it slows your connection speed.

    Yeah, wardriving is fun!

    I'd love to have an RV with all kinds of antennas on top :)

    But don't worry, I'm harmless, I wouldn't know how to cause any damage at all, other than just taking a little bandwidth from you!

    I don't mind if the neighbors used my wifi, but I had one hacking. I couldn't use the internet from my computers even the ones wired to the router!
    The neighbor was accessing p-rn sites and my router is set to block them and email me a warning, first time I thought a computer had a virus since no one was on any in my house!

    Somehow this person would cause the router to not work for me, I couldn't even send to a wireless print server until I turned off then on the router and I would have access until the person did whatever they were doing again!

    Now, I have a different router and set with everything I could think of... no one is getting in...
