    Will this make a case for filing a complaint with the cops? Someone in nearby apartment keeps setting his hotspot name with all cuss words. I'm thinking, will there be any technology to locate the Lat,Long of this wifi & hire a killer-drone to smash through the window and shoot down the suspect. I guess he would be looking something like this[^].

      I've set my wifi to "Mobile Police Surveillance Van #3" before. I feel it made it lees appealing for my neighbours to hack.

        Install this on any Android device: Wifi Analyzer[^] It includes a strength meter which will let you "zero in" on the router. Is it illegal? Good question - probably not, but ask your local equivelant of the FCC (US) / Ofcom (UK). Obscene language over wireless devices is illegal, I think - but names? Difficult ...

          I've just updated mine to be non-kid safe, just to piss off people like you :) No, not illegal.

                          A wi-fi name? I certainly hope if they do anything about it, it means they've already solved ever other crime in your area.

                            That would make it more appealing, at least for me.

                                    One of my neighbors has this: "MyNeighborsPenis". Apparently it's available to anyone that wants to connect. My niece came into town and picked that one because she was more reluctant to connect to my wireless ("SkyNET Guest").

                                      I used wifi names to advantage. One of my neighbors was an abusive single mother that was almost always screaming at her children. I named my wifi "CPS_Observation#42". She settled down quite a bit after that. [In Texas, CPS is Children's Protective Services.] I now live in a retirement community. My current wifi is "ItHurtsWhenIP".
