      Not broadcasting the SSID is false security that one of many tools can work through easily.

        Agree. We have always made our SSID some sort of joke. An inside joke usually, but a joke all the same.
        If you think Education is expensive, try ignorance.

        The difference between genius and stupidity is genius has limits.

            GG! RUN! They've found you!

            Either that or one of your neighbors has a great sense of humor.

              Maybe NSA Surveillance Van is looking for Boris and Natasha, or Rocky and Bullwinkle, or the Three Stooges, or ...

                        Aren't there people out there who would treat that as equivalent to "I DARE you to try to crack my system"?

                              I've never seen it. I don't know if that means my neighbors are lame, or too hip to use an old joke.
