Yes I know; there is no point in broadcasting your SSID to anyone. Still, people always do it because it is in the default setting. Today I decided to spy take a look at what my neighbours' WiFis are named. Here's a screenshot which contains one at least one name that made me giggle:

[image loading]

"No free internet for you!" Awww.... there goes my plan of piggybacking

Please share yours/your neighbours'!

EDIT: Like Molybdenum suggested, POST SCREENSHOT(S) OF YOUR WIFI LIST!

Some devices for some reason can't handle non-broadcasted SSIDs. The best though, was a WEP encrypted router with the SSID: "CANT HACK ME"

Edit: "GPA 4.0" and "donner_party" in that image are funny SSIDs too.

When I was living at uni, my friend set up the internet for our apartment at first, and he didn't put a password on it or anything. So a couple of days later, I'm checking out the router page to fix a couple of settings and see a curious computer (not one of ours) connected/leeching. It had a name 'RachelsLaptop' or something similar, and this Rachel had been connected for quite a while. So I added a password & renamed the wifi to "Nice try Rachel". Served as a pretty funny icebreaker when we actually met a couple of days later.
I never did get around to actually changing the SSID so it remained like that for the better part of a year.

It's funny because of the irony that someone accidentally named their wifi connection after the Donner Party. Or maybe they just have a bad sense of humor.

One of my neighbor's internet network's name is ChiquitaBanana. I was bored, and so I spent 10 minutes guessing passwords, and eventually got in with Bananas9

2WIRE WLANs

brute force with 10 digit sequences starting from all 0s to 9,999,999,999

wonder how long it'll take to get in assuming they didn't change the code since they didn't bother to change their SSID

I have always named my wireless "Virus" as a hyperbolic joke--- "Ha! Imagine that poor sucker's face when he accidentally connects to VIRUS!!!" Cue nerd high-five and a shared ironic chuckle.

The joke, however, became all too real.

One evening, my fiancee was configuring her parent's WiFi, and in homage, she named the network "Virus." As she showed her father how to connect to their new wireless connection, he made the "ooohhhhh fuuuuuuuu......dge" face from A Christmas Story and yelled something about danger (it was in slo-mo, didn't catch it).

Funny how the one named "No free internet for you" is only WPA1, when all the others are WPA2

My roommate Kevin once gave out our wireless information to our neighbors... since then I have changed the SSID to Kevin's Dick and changed the password.

Yes I noticed that as well. But I do not know how "unsafe" WPA1 is compared to WPA2.
