it still goes back to being the host of the the internet connection. i still stand by the fact that if the wifi was not properly secured then it was that person's fault for not having a secure network. i mean sure i agree that whorig a signal off a neighbor is not right but you have got to take steps on your own to ensure that your wireless network is secure. i mean if all this fuss about identity theft and credit card databases being hacked isnt enough to tell you nothing is safe, why be arrogant enough to assume that your unlocked wifi network is safe too? that is poor thinking by anyone that has wifi. i have wifi for my psp and yes sir it is locked like fort knox. but then again i am no n00b either. maybe this story and this thread here on BBR will raise everyones awareness on this issue as it is very important. edit: also if you think someone might be trying to get into your wifi, shut off all your devices that access your wireless and you can watch your sending and receiving of the packets. i know my router allows me to do that as it has 4 wired ports as well as wirelss "B" and "G" and i can monitor those packets too. i mean changing the encryption key takes all of 5 seconds to change it in the router/access point then you take your new key and insert it into your devices that access via wireless.
Hey Rob I dont really know much about wifi and I was wondering about it. Actually i was wondering about my psp and how that kind of thing works with the wifi connection and that kind of thing. I dont know if you know anything about psp's or anything but I just thought i would ask. Any info you can give about wifi would be a help thanks.
