{OT} Boom Boom room wireless network.

So a new network showed up in my area and its called boom boom room (unsecured). Do you guys or gals think one of my neighbors was hacked or they just named it that. Can only be one of three houses and two not counting mine. My wife tried to blame it on me looking at porn again but i unplugged both my routers and its still there. Wondering if i should knock on the doors and inform them of it.

Re: Boom Boom room wireless network.

its presence isnt necessarily a bad/unintentional thing.. people name their wifis all sorts of things. could be someones phone hotspot, or what not. a popular name around my area seems to be "FBI SURVEILLANCE VAN"

if you feel like being a good (nosy?) neighbor, go and ask them.

Well, as mentioned above, some people have some crazy SSIDs...

I have seen quite a few odd ones in my neighborhood.

Just a sample of some of my weird neighbors. "Tenkai" isn't "weird" in my estimation. It is the name of the pub and boarding house run by Miss China in: "Spirit of Wonder; Miss China's Melancholy" (and subsequent Miss China arcs).

Some of my weird neighbors.


I had an old girlfriend use, "Virus", and some variation of FBI surveillance on her main and guest networks.

One small addition for another "cute" SSID:

Slow Internet, anyone?


Maybe I should "cut-and-paste" all the "cute" SSIDs I see.

I've been considering making such an SSID and making it a captive portal type thing, but where all they'd get is some boring web page.

Re: {OT} Boom Boom room wireless network.

I used to see one ID in my neighborhood called, "Crime Stopper" turned out to be a retired cop.
