In the interest of education, had a go with aircrack last night. Very interesting. Most of the networks (6 of 8) are secure. Well, actually, put it another way 6 of 8 were secure. I shall be tightening up my own network (I didn't bother locking mac addresses until now).

Since I bought a bigger aerial (so I can work at the end of the garden) I now have access to 3 unsecured wireless networks from home.

My neighbours include an ex footballer, a city lawyer and a sales director for a big IT company. Which one should I choose to surf the dodgier parts of the internet?

[Clog II The Avenger]

Yes.

The instructions about how to set up the security are printed in Chinese* behind a page that states "Beware of the Leopard"...

*That's Mandarin of course, not common or garden Cantonese.

Cantonese uses simplified Chinese characters and Mandarin uses traditional. Both are interchangeable. Therefore a Cantonese person can read simplified Chinese. However, as the symbols are just simple icons or pictures, they can be read in a variety of ways. The same symbols read by a Cantonese will not be generally understood by a Mandarin. It is quite easy to learn Chinese symbols and not speak a word of the language.

Breathe (reprise)

Home, home again.
I like to be here when I can.
When I come home cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire.
Far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells.
