Have fun with your neighbours!

So somebody is piggy backing on your wireless network?


I am of the mind that it's no harm no foul if someone occasionally uses my wireless.  I also support the ideas and use of http://www.ilesansfil.org/  but where I live it hasn't been adopted much, I think it has to do with population density 'burbs vs urbs?? 


However if someone is slowing your network or using it for nefarious purposes you may want to lock them out or mess with their heads:

The essential idea is that you split your network into trusted and unknown using DHCP.  Then you have some fun with the unknowns: the two suggestions are
  1. send all traffic to kittenwar.com 
  2. reverse all of the images  using a simple perl script &  the mogrify binary from ImageMagik
I'm sure you could come up with something else !!
