Mr. JD Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 (edited) I have 2 wifi networks in my house. One is "RedSectorA" the other is "RedSectorB". I have a friend who named his "RedBarchetta". Edited August 29, 2015 by Mr. JD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New World Kid Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 No, but I have a good story. When I was in college, my room mate and I used an old wifi router from my parents. We renamed it to "Tits McGee" after a reference to the movie Anchorman. So then when we were done rooming, I gave the router back to my parents, who then loaned it to my Grandpa, who plugged it in and had no idea why his network was called "Tits McGee." It was awkward to explain that one. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HemiBeers Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I have two routers that we switch back and forth...when my kid gets his streaming IP blocked. BubblesShedSunnyvale Trailer Park I live in a nice subdivision so I'm sure that has the neighbors wondering when they see it in their wireless network list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamie Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Mine is MyCharterWifi45-2G. I can change it's name on my computer but I think I'd have to call Charter to "officially" change the name. I don't really know how all that shit works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueschica Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 My daughters initialized ours and named it after our cats - - twocutekittens anyone? Sigh. Judging by the neighbors' names we can see, they aren't very creative either- rfamily, nfamily, hfamily, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grep Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I've got 2. The one we use is a name that blends, The other I just goof around with. In the last month someone on the block changed their name to 'runner'. In response, I changed my spare to 'Logan'. I'm not sure if anyone gets the reference or not. ;) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grep Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) Helpful Tip: Always change your router's SID from the default. Whatever name your router comes with from the factory, change it to something else, anything else. Reason for this is that some manufacturers are systemic with the default names. If someone is hacking wifi, they can tell the brand of router by the name - sometimes. And given that some routers have exploits that others don't, it's best to not give anyone on the outside a clue that they could use against your setup. For example a certain make and model of an old router might be subject to a flood type attack, another router, something else.... I mean, it's not likely... but then again sometimes bored people learn how to use the easily available tools that try to crack witi connections. Also change the default password to something long and hard to guess. Edited September 24, 2015 by grep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
