EX: Your in your bedroom and receive your neighbors signal.
Does anybody remember what the verdict and details where?

Total Posts: 689 | I dunno. We had wireless awhile back and created a secure network. The problem was we had a "phantom" network, which turned out to be our original, unprotected network, which for some reason only ran at 50% efficiency, let alone still existing. Needless to say, we are now a cable network.
