My WiFi is ‘Secret Rebel Base’.

My neighbours have added ‘Jabba the Hub’, ‘Obi Lan Kenobi’, and ‘Red WiFi-ve Standing By’. This makes me happy.

Anyone else live in a neighbourhood that embraces this kind of WiFi silliness?

      Mobile terhering hotspot is: 8 HZ WAN IP

      I’m waiting for somebody to be looking at their phone, smile, and look around. It hasn’t happened yet, but I chuckle at somebody getting it some day.

        I had to think about it even after you pointed out it. The 8 as a standin for “it” wasn’t doing me any favors in getting it (assuming I’ve got it right at all). The first thought I had was “8Hz? That’d be absurdly slow!”

      Make it a story. At some point change it to “megahertz”, then a while later “gigahertz” - see if anyone is paying attention.

        Fortunately, not too many people are going to see it. I have two WAPs. The upper one is on the first floor and runs at just enough power to cover the 1st and 2nd floors. The 2nd WAP is in the basement.

        Get much past 100 feet from my house and it’s very difficult to pick up. While some of my neighbors 4 or 5 doors down are broadcasting their WiFi at full power, one is even completely open. LOL
