My home network was named GCHQ Covert Operations Base until I reset the router a few weeks ago 

no one else can see my network so seems little point

I'm not sure but my xbox name used to be xbox turn off... Amazing how many people raged at me and their xbox tried to turn off at the same time.

ours used to be called "getyourownconnection"    now it is just virgin305559 or something like that.

_SantaDoesn'texist always goes down well at christmas for new gifts 

Ours is called Spoons..... My nickname as my surname is Spooner.

Sniffer apps can see it. Apps like Wifi analyzer will show a network and it's channel and that the name isn't broadcast, you can then use others to get the name.

WEP is the easiest to find the name of

But Jason lives in Devon and most people there think WiFi is some form of witchcraft.

The SSID I use for my home network is Madhouse

We used to have some of the Satirical names like GCHQ etc...

Now we have dual frequency networks...

The 2.4GHz is called "Never gonna give you up"
 

..and the 5Ghz is "Never gonna let you down"


Ironically, "Never gonna let you down" lets me down the most. Mostly because my laptop can't see it due to the lack of a 5GHz receiver.

Someone's a Rick Astley fan, that's worthy of a beating in itself

 

My network is called ummmmmmm Macdemon.  

Have had the usual names (Dual Band)

 

Police Surveillance Van #1

Police Surveillance Van #2

 

Pretty Fly

For a WiFi

 

Why Why Why

Delilah

Seeing these I think I'm going to have to name mine. :clap:

 

Had never bothered before.

There's plenty of potential for passive agressive WiFi networks.

Fairly boringly ours is called the same as the name of the house.

 

I use MAC filtering as well as WPA2 which annoys anyone that stays with us as I have to add their MAC address to the list.

 neighbours used to call their's "noseyb@stards" always made me chuckle if i had to reconnect for any reason &it would be on the list

Our device list is pretty static - so doesn't cause any issues for our own devices, also tend to hard connect most stuff, only exceptions are laptop, tablets and mobiles.

 

We do have solid internal walls which makes getting WifFi round the bungalow interesting, I've got two access points in the loft.

 

The work connected kit is on a ring within a ring and no WiFi available on that sub-net

What device are you running to be able to subnet off?

Has to be something abit better than the standard Netgear router lol

Yes pro gear from a major manufacturer.

 

But then IT is my game and it gives me a secure link to the office.

 

Roaming uses 10 digit One Time Passcodes from secure tokens.

I call mine "Free internet access".

 

Anyone want any credit card numbers?
