| federal offense of the 7th degree
inmate 1: I killed 31 people with an olive fork.
inmate 2: I drove around in my Ford Ranger with my laptop
inmate 1: Woah, I'm not f-ing with you buddy.
Now back to reality, I bet a convicted war driver would be raped even before he gets to jail... |

Loganville, GA | That's Great
I can cruise around in my new Chevy Camaro Z28 and Stumble while I enjoy my new ride. That's sweet =). I am sure I can find a way to fix a antenna outside of the car since it's a t-top.

Works well with the Orinoco Gold (802.11b) that I have here now. Doesn't seem much different than the version I was running in the fall. I just ordered the Orinoco Gold 802.11 b/g card along with a small magnetic antenna, should have it by Friday.

| Only Secured is illegal
Only intruding on secured networks is illegal. If a Wifi zone is not secured, then it is public space. The frequency is considered public use by FCC. No different than picking up unsecured phone conversation on the 2.4Ghz band by the cheap cordless phones. That is not considered a wiretap.
Enforcement of the use of public radio transmissions belongs to the FCC. If someone broke the key (WEP or otherwise) and was hacking a system, yes, the law has clearly been broken.
If someone is merely surfing the web on an open wifi zone, no crime has been committed. If they are using it to commit crimes or conduct commercial activity, I think that is obvious. Bust em. |

Then the problem is really how technically trained are these police officers? Do you really think they'll be able to differentiate between casual web browsing on an open connection and using the connection as a relay to perform exploits?
My gut feeling is telling me that they'll arrest anybody they find with a laptop computer in their car, regardless of what the facts may be. |

The GPRS and 1xRTT aircards should cause a lot of problems. Expecially with the business-type.
Employee - "Hey. Will you bail me out of jail so I can get to my next meeting on time? And can you get that presentation on a disc?"
Boss - "Dammit. Not again! Be right over."

Please back this up with proof.
If I accidently leave my front door unlocked, it doesnt mean you have the right to just walk into my home. And It dont mean you are welcome to intrude on my hard drive and hack my files either. |

Actually listening to cordless phones is illegal regardless as to what band they operate on. If they are connected to the PSTN then they fall under the ECPA which prohibits reception of them. Does not matter if they are digitally secure or in the clear analog. I'd guess the laws will be changed to also include wireless networks. |

Re: Re secured networks
If your foolish enough to run a wide open network and too lazy to run Cat 5, then you truly deserve any problems you get. Cat 5 is 3 cents per foot and the modular plugs are about a dime each. There are technologies available that work well on existing home run phone lines, I guess if you had a lazy electrician wire your home your still screwed in that respect. I would rather put in Wiremold than let my secure data be on the air.
You all complain about linksys, but I have found 2 Dlink AP's that will let any card assosciate with it, no matter what the ssid is set at on the card.
I have found that Linksys' problems are more related to Win XP, because I have yet to have problems with my Win 2k Laptop. |
