I know this is wrong but I am too poor to buy a computer and internet. So I borrow a laptop every so often and pick up on one of my neighbors wireless connection. My question is, can my neighbor tell when I am borrowing their internet? I might be currently doing this and my connection keeps going out and is hard to get back.

It's called stealing, get your own connection. Your welcome.

Go ahead and run an extension cord into their outdoor outlets. I'm sure they won't mind. Hell, it's free electricity!

like I said, I know this is wrong. I hardly ever do it. If I knew which neighbor it was I would ask if they mind but there are several connections I think. If I had wireless I wouldn't care. And if they don't want it done can't they block it somehow? but thanks. oops I didn't realize I chose that one.

Yes, they can tell, but probably aren't looking. You can be arrested for theft of services, there is precedent.

If you're on good terms with them, go next door and ask if they would mind you using the connection once in a while, and offer them something in return. My dad did it with his neighbor for almost 2 years, with the neighbor's consent.

If you had satelite internet service at twice the cost of regular cable or dsl you would care very much, if you reach the downloading/uploading limit the service slows down to dial up speed for 30 days. :smack:

I am pretty sure it is the people behind me I don't talk to my neighbors to often. But one night they had a party and ran out of beer, I gave them some. I figure they won't mind. I know that isn't the point but really it is very rare of me to do it, like once every couple of months. I really don't have time to be on a computer. My question is now. Are all of you saying you have NEVER downloaded music from limewire, napster or one of those other sites?

I did have dsl at one time it was like 17 dollars a month, my neighbor drives a corvette. I don't think this is killing him. Now if I am slowing him down, then I feel bad. If it makes anyone happy at tax time I will be getting a computer and my own internet. But calm down, I am not killing anyone. I knew I shouldn't have asked.

Yes, they can tell. Yes, they are idiotic for not securing their connection. Although chances are if you haven't been caught or if they haven't secured their connection, then they aren't looking.

Now then, why -shouldn't- you do this? Because it slows down the connections on their computer. Because if you can connect to their router, they can connect to your computer. Meaning -anything- you do can be monitored by them with ease. Any banking transactions, any passwords, any personal information you have on your computer is now theirs. Or rather, if they had half a brain to detect you and care enough.

On top of that, it is a criminal act that can put you behind bars and/or fine the hell out of you.

...calling this stealing is the same as you tapping into their plumbing drain pipes and taking their waste water or using the light that comes out of their windows or the heat that leaks out of their home; Yes, they paid for it, the water, the light, the heat, but you're using what they waste. You are not costing them a single dime more unless and until they are paying for their bandwidth use which, at present, they are not.

I agree with the poster who said you might want to ask your neighbors and see if they mind, just as a simple courtesy. As it is, they either do not know or do not care because, like pulling the drapes, they can control your access with a few clicks of the mouse. Right now, they choose not to.

This is NOT a big deal. Not even a little one.

the more people on an internet connection, the slower it runs. depending on how heavily each person uses the network, it can slow it down substantially. your neighbor probably sits around wondering why their network randomly slows down at various times...when it's probably just you slowing it down by taking part of their connection.

it's very possible you aren't slowing them down or harming their connection at all...but you never know what it's doing or how they're reacting to it.

If one chooses to establish a personal or independent Wifi network then they should protect it in a manner that requires access codes for use. Given that home/personal/independent Wifi networks are considered as unlicensed spectrum held as a common where all individuals have equal rights of use and not a telecommunications service; it cannot be stolen.

I don't know about your connection but I have several PC's a PS3 and Xbox 360 on my network.

...calling this stealing is the same as you tapping into their plumbing drain pipes and taking their waste water or using the light that comes out of their windows or the heat that leaks out of their home; Yes, they paid for it, the water, the light, the heat, but you're using what they waste. You are not costing them a single dime more unless and until they are paying for their bandwidth use which, at present, they are not.

I agree with the poster who said you might want to ask your neighbors and see if they mind, just as a simple courtesy. As it is, they either do not know or do not care because, like pulling the drapes, they can control your access with a few clicks of the mouse. Right now, they choose not to.

This is NOT a big deal. Not even a little one.

I completely agree with this and am laughing at all the holier than thou types who want to give OP a hard time about this. :lol:

I know this is wrong but I am too poor to buy a computer and internet. So I borrow a laptop every so often and pick up on one of my neighbors wireless connection. My question is, can my neighbor tell when I am borrowing their internet? I might be currently doing this and my connection keeps going out and is hard to get back.

Biatch those wireless connections have strict usage limitations. You should seriously be ashamed, not mention arrested.

Yes, they can tell. Yes, they are idiotic for not securing their connection. Although chances are if you haven't been caught or if they haven't secured their connection, then they aren't looking.

Now then, why -shouldn't- you do this? Because it slows down the connections on their computer. Because if you can connect to their router, they can connect to your computer. Meaning -anything- you do can be monitored by them with ease. Any banking transactions, any passwords, any personal information you have on your computer is now theirs. Or rather, if they had half a brain to detect you and care enough.

On top of that, it is a criminal act that can put you behind bars and/or fine the hell out of you.



When you know enough to log into their router and set it to, "no logging" and they don't know enough to change it. WTF?

How is that going to put me behind bars?

These laws are tricky when it comes to this stuff. It is legal for me to pull up outside of your house and recieve your Cordless phone signal but it's illegal for me to recieve your Cell Phone signal. :shrug:

There might be invasion of privacy laws involved or something but per the FCC rulings it is legal.

These wireless signal are not meant to be a point to point transmission. The transmitter sends the siganl out to any receiver within its transmit area. It's up to the owenr of the Router to put security in place.

Again I don't think there are any FCC rules against this. Probably some state laws come into play though.

And if they don't want it done can't they block it somehow? but thanks. oops I didn't realize I chose that one.


You can probably figure out which neighbor it is. My PDA has a wireless connection, and as soon as I got a wireless router I hopped online with it... and as it turns out all my neighbors, next-door on each side of me, and the family across the street all have wireless networks in their homes. I know this because all their named networks popped up on the 'select a network' screen. I'm not sure how to detect or select a network using a laptop.

If they don't want it done, it can be blocked (and I'm actually surprise they don't have it blocked... this is a very dangerous practice). Mine is blocked. I'm not sure if the neighbors block theirs because I never tried to get into their network.

But are they actually accessing a computer? Wifi networks and access are considered as being from the unlicensed spectrum and therefore cannot be stolen. Also the CFAA has a $5,000 damage requirement that is probably not met by some person simply accessing the internet through an open connection.

I know this because all their named networks popped up on the 'select a network' screen. I'm not sure how to detect or select a network using a laptop.

If they don't want it done, it can be blocked (and I'm actually surprise they don't have it blocked... this is a very dangerous practice). Mine is blocked. I'm not sure if the neighbors block theirs because I never tried to get into their network.

WHAT!?


Exactly! Don't know!

Feel free to use my wireless anytime you want. My router is secured, my pcs are secured, my wireless is open. Granted you would actually have to be right outside my house but I got tired of my PS3, Wii, and media center loosing connections. Also didn't feel like buying new routers that may work better.

I do have IP limits, and MAC filtering on, but thats not really anything. There may even be some snot nose kid sitting outside my window with a sniffer decrypting my forum posts :shrug: That is why I have credit protector, and limited the range on the wireless.

you might talk to God about His 10 Commandments and tell Him you only like 9..that it is ok to take things for your personal use that do not belong to you.

that is stealing and if you are ok with stealing access to the internet, then what will you take/steal next?

You know, it's nice to see a newbie who can take a lickin' and keep on tickin' :yay: A number of the people who jump on here have no sense of humor to speak of, and are so thin-skinned they run off crying the second they meet dissent.

So let's give it up for the sweetprincess :clap:

I just got out of a 10 month abusive relationship, yeah maybe it was because of my mouth or maybe he was mad at me stealing someones internet. but I can tell you at this point in my life I am not scared of no one. In the past 10 months I have learned to defend myself, if I can take on a 6'2 man I can take on anyone. Please don't take this wrong anyone, don't want to get kicked off this wonderul site. But NO ONE SCARES ME!!!
But you might want to talk to GOD tonight about all your built up anger.

:killingme


Vria, what do we have for Noob of the week? Something nice, I hope? A pair of matching jet ski's? A trip to Hawaii? A $10 Comcast gift card??

...if you're close enough to get on my wireless, 1, you're trespassing because the signal isn't strong enough to go off my land and 2, you've hacked the latest, greatest encryption.



depending on how many trees and acres, I could pick up your signal with a pringles cantenna ..... and last I heard wireless security, wasn't

In several of the thuper theeqwet forums we have lists of "must read" threads. I'm going to go post a link to this thread in them right now. :lol:

I'm on the fence if this is a 'Must Read' thread but I will forge on, since I am right in the middle. :coffee: I need to see what name Larry is dubbed.

It's not piddly Vrai, (Verizon) 25 cents per mega byte overage. That adds up!

Comcast will just shut you down. Your phone your internet and cable TV.

This is seriously not funny.



Comcast allowance is 250Gb Per Month .... hard to use that up unless your running a P2P app downloading 10,000 songs a day

Feel free to use my wireless anytime you want. My router is secured, my pcs are secured, my wireless is open. Granted you would actually have to be right outside my house but I got tired of my PS3, Wii, and media center loosing connections. Also didn't feel like buying new routers that may work better.



I run an unsecured 11b wireless ......... with comcast 10Mpbs who cares if someone piggybacks ........... :shrug:
