It is interesting to note from all the iPhone screen shots that their signals are almost uniformly poor, usually only one bar.

As others have mentioned...

"I'm so stupid, I broadcast my SSID"

Yeah! Another sane person. The only reason to broadcast your SSID is if you WANT people to be able to find it and use it. OK if you are Starbucks.

I think we have all had creative names for our networks from time to time. I once took a pot-sh0t at a friend that came to my house to use my network..................I won't say the name I had for it, but it certainly did the trick.

How about supressing your SSID (network name) so that your neighbors can't use it. This is one of the easist steps to securing your network.

Oh, and use an encryption protocol. Even WEP is better than nothing, but WPA2 is recommended.

And then there is using an Access Control List (ACL) to only allow certain computers to access your network.

Just about every WiFi system out there supports these three simple steps and if you use them, it is quite difficult for anyone to get in your network.

Funny thing right now, one of my neighbors has as their wifi name FU Lisa. Don't know who Lisa is but somebody has got issue with her. Hey, this is a good way to have your on pa system to your neighborhood. "Tim at 183 Elmwood likes little boys." Wonder how long it would take Tim to figure out who was spreading the word. Especially, liked the one saying your dog crapped on my lawn,

I n my old apartment I called it "VirusServer"
Never seemed to have a problem with other people using my internet.

The thing that baffles me is how many unsecured networks still exist in 2010. There are 3 unsecured options within range of my apartment right now, so apparently a few of my neighbors know just enough to be dangerous.

All it takes is one whacko to siphon child-predator filth using your unsecured network and then YOU will find yourself in the crosshairs of an investigation. Take two minutes to secure your network, people.

That is the argument I use to encourage people to get secure.

Wi-fi isn't secure. It should be banned as a consumer product or not admissible as testimony. If it's that easy to break through, and it isn't hard to crack WEP (even ehow.com apparently has an article) and WPA... just doing a web search with one word and three capitalized letters shows enough for me to disable mine.

Well a good start is to encrypt your hard drive. If they do get in, it will be garble, garble.

Maybe if you just put a little tinfoil hat over it......... just sayin'

Yeah, most wifi come with terrible factory default settings. You can improve your odds by maximizing the encryption (max bit size, WPA2, etc) and choosing 'better' words and passphrases. But really.... its always a risk/benefit analysis just like any part of life.

I used to use the name "Welcome to Internetland!!!"

I want to meant whoever uses the router name Purple Rain. I think we would get along.

I used to have BUSHSUCKS last year but then I changed it because I didn't want to encourage hackers. Now I just broadcast my business website's name.

If you don't want people to try to use your network, don't broadcast the SSID (network name).
