Re: Wifi: Michael’s got like, 5 machines using that wifi router at home, so it seems like a chore to have to lock in all of the MAC addys. I think a 128 bit WEP key would be sufficient.
Sorta ironic, really. The hacker in me wants to give the kid some props for getting access any which way he can, but, of course, unsupervised ‘net access in a place like OBI could be bad bad bad.
I do get a thrill out of bringing my Nintendo DS to strange places and looking for open networks. Nothing like playing networked Mario Kart on somebody else’s bandwith to make ya feel like a real pirate. Ahhhr.
