Just enabled the wireless on my laptop and Dell PDA and I'm sitting here in the living room watching AutoRox and surfing the internet on my laptop. Now, for the rub. I don't have a wireless router in this house. I have no clue how I'm surfing the internet right now. Anyone have any clues? I can't believe there's a free wifi spot in my suburban neighborhood, but . . .
This is just too cool. It's actually faster than my home cable modem connection. What the heck? (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Now to see if my PDA can do the same thing since it has wireless too. |

Here is a wardrive I did down I-35 a couple months ago. This is a 210 mile stretch from Fort Worth to just south of Austin. The laptop was beeping so much from finding access points that I shut off the sound after the first few miles. As you can see, 90% of them are unsecured. When I stopped at Taco Bell I hopped online to tell the girlfriend where I was at. You can see the grand total for the access points, as well as one of the many weird names people give their access point/routers. Keep in mind these are also signals gathered from the interstate and also flying down the road at 70 mph. |
