Went on a War Drive tonight.

Networking and broadband talkabout. Need help with that new router or setting up a network?

Went on a War Drive tonight.

Post by Pugsley »

Got them antennas and a nice card and rndmtak's laptop and an inverter and took it out on the road. and i was suprized how much crap we found driving at 55 mph. Alot of it didnt even have WEP on and out of the ones that didnt have WEP about 70% of them were stock configs. Amazing how good these antenna worked. The card had something to do with it too, but it was just nuts seeing all the stuff in peoples homes. We picked up a few that we could tag as a building, but mostly private stuffs.

You could also be asking for trouble if you are contacting people because they may wonder if you took anything or deleted stuff or whatever.
