I agree with you! There are so many ways to prevent your wireless network from being tapped but that neighbour, who is an IT idiot chose to call the police...Originally posted by LinYu:knn. that fellow shld just set password instead. he shld also share the blame for causing the theft and wasting tax-payer monies for police investigation
It's like putting lots of money in front of your house door and then when someone takes it, you call the police.... -

so whose interest was protected?

my neighbour purposely nvr encrypt their network.. then everytime i always accidentally connected to their network one.. no wonder the speed always so slow..
-
i think he is every time oso liddat until the wireless owner very fed up.. look at his dulan face. lol. but i think he has the right to do so even if it doesn't sit well on others. and i doubt he is an IT idiot to be able to know its this guy and convinced the police to aim him. not easy you know, sometimes the police damm bo chup one, especially towards online matters.
bottomline, a crime is a crime. and the worst criminals are people who have no idea that what they are doing is wrong.
i know some people strongly refuse to believe dat anyhow use other people's wireless access can be illegal.
its like downloading mp3, its only when people gets arrested and sued den it gets to their brain. -
how to check ur neighbour leeching on u?
sudden slowdown in connection speed?
anyway the owner should use the MAC address function or SSID function mah -
But in the first place, did his neighbour encrypt his own network?
I mean, it would still be wrong of the boy to steal the network if the neighbour didn't encrypt it. What I'm saying is that not encrypting his network is somewhat akin to leaving his wallet out in the open for someone to take. -
this is damned fucking dumb. Those who dont secure their own wireless networks and kpkb when others use their networks should be buried alive.
There are some configurations where the wireless device will automatically connect to the strongest signal it receives. Many palmtops and smartphones are programmed to do so.
Imagine walking to the living room with ur laptop. Your wireless router is in your bedroom while your next-door neighbour's router happen to be nearer to your laptop.
And than your laptop automatically connects you to your neighbour's router because its signal is stronger at your living room.
Than ur neighbour decides to sue u for tapping into his connection and you get jailed for that. -
Here at home there is access to wireless internet with the network name 'Motorola'.
Will I get into trouble if I use this wireless internet?
Thanks in advance. -
it does connect to the strongest signal and u can set ur preferred network. i dun understand how come some ppl can connect to wrong network one. i've never connected wrongly for the past x years of my wireless experience.Originally posted by o0Nite0o:this is damned fucking dumb.

if u leave ur wallet out in the open, and someone steals it, it doesn't mean the thief is justified to steal ur wallet and gets away scott free.Originally posted by fudgester:But in the first place, did his neighbour encrypt his own network?
