How many wireless networks can you see from your House/apt?

[DivideBYZero]

Just by doing a regular view in windows, how many do you get?

I have between 5 and 6.

How many can you connect to and access the routers config cause the dumbass left the password as the default?

I have 1.

 

[hjo3]

Sixteen (seventeen if you count mine). Two of them are open. Haven't tried accessing other ppl's routers, but mine's not on a default password.

 

[mattocs]

only one, and its mine.

I don't think anyone else in the town I live in has the internet, let alone a wireless router.

 

[xcript]

Mine + two others.

I can access the config on all of them.

9 and my ISP went down so I stole one of them for 10 minutes so I could find the support number. And I didn't like doing it. Seriously though only me and one other person in my range actually uses a security key. Idiots.

[edit]I haven't tried reconfiguring them but since atleast one of them is called "Netgear" I'm reasonably sure I could.

 

[gar3555]

only mine....damn boonies...no one here would know what to do with a wireless network.

When I was in school: 6, and I could get on any of them whenever I needed.

4

 

[JustAnAverageGuy]

two.

One of which is mine.

The second one is just an Apple Airport. I can log in and browse the web with it, but I can't access the router page.

 

[SKORPI0]

Two. Can access neighbor, set their router to default login/pw.

 

[Eli]

Just one.. heh.

 

[bleeb]

Mine + one other and his network is unsecure.

2. My next door neighbor has WEP enabled, and the other one is a weak signal with no protection

 

[ZOXXO]

Zero

 

[blurredvision]

I've got one neighbor whose wireless network I can see. It's not secured, and it became very valuable during my troublesome times with Adelphia (their fault turning my service off, not mine).

 

[Dean]

Only one other in my area. Totally unprotected. What's wierd is My Ibook G4 gets around a 45% signal strength to it while my IBM Thinkpad T42 gets only a signal in the high 20ish percentage range.

What's your favourite neighbours network called?

One of my neighbours has "Phils Network" which I thought was inspired.

Mine is "Armor", a Netgear WGT624

 

[oboeguy]

Maybe two others. Reception is lousy around here. Even with our wireless router sitting in the window it's hard to get a consistent connection from the sidewalk.

 

[DivideBYZero]

One neighour has the SSID 'DV82XS'. It's a woman and NO I would not... *puke*

mine is a bit of a parody, but its called

I will see if I still have the netstumbler log.

 

[Supermercado]

Just mine. Kind of surprising. I figured I'd be able to see at least one other, but I wonder if maybe the construction of the apartment complex prevents the wireless signals from getting through the walls. My cell phone reception is horrible the second I walk in the door, so it wouldn't surprise me if it affects the wireless networks, too.

? There are only 11 channels availabe for 802.11b/g I'm guessing at least 6 tof them are 802.11a.(which is all but unbelievable) you'd need at least one open channel at 2.4Ghz for one person at a time to use a 2.4Ghz cordless phone.

 

[meltdown75]

i don't think mine is protected

no idea how many there are around my house!! probably several since we live in a newer subdivision. i don't have one of those devices to see them. you guys are fun.
