I've got my wifi open currently, just in case of people driving past. If they want to check their email, go nuts. BitTorrent not so welcome though. I've had a couple of regulars who I suspect are neighbours either (a) associating with my access point by accident (rather than their own), or (b) freeloaders. So they've gone in the MAC address blacklist. Still I'm considering closing it up, or setting up some sort of authentication scheme. You're welcome to be on the whitelist though, should you ever be driving past my non-descript location in Forest Hill :) I've survived past holidays on inadvertently-free wifi I admit. cheers Hamish Perhaps they are being benevolent rather than ignorant?
