Fuck You and the IP Address You Rode in On.
For several months now, one of my neighbors has been piggy-backing on my wireless connection. I hadn't protected the connection, because my laptop has always been a little squirrely about the wireless connection, and I just seemed to connect more reliably when the connection wasn't secured. And it was more than fast enough for me still, so I thought, what's the harm?
Tonight I found out.
Some jackass hijacked my router and secured it. Locking me out. Jackass.
So I called Bob, my friendly neighborhood computer guy, and he walked me through resetting the router to knock out the lock (which only I can do, since I am in the same physical location as the router) and how to set up my own lock.
So I hope you're proud of yourself, dude. You had a good thing going--free wi-fi at your fingertips--but you had to go and fuck it up. So now you are officially SOL.
Jackass.
