Re: wifi, What will you do if..

What will you do if u hav no internet but have a spare wifi usb dongle tapos may nasasagap ka na unsecure wifi signal from one of your neighbors?

If you plan on leeching, will you connect kahit na may warning sa network na "information sent over this network might be visible to others"

use it sparingly,
if you leech on it, then sooner or later your good neighbor will forced to restrict it.
I open & share my wifi at home & office,

Go ahead and use it. They left it open. It's their responsibility.

Yeah. Besides, husto na 'yung nakakagamit ng libre sa unsecure wifi... 'Wag ng pasukin pa 'yung router configurator at baguhin 'yung settings o password.

You shouldn't mess with the router even if you have access. Kasi it will only raise concern and they might call tech support. Then those guys will for sure secure it he he. My neighbor's wifi is also open. But I don't use it kasi I have naman broadband. For P999/mo I am not complaining. Tapos I have my Smart for backup.

sometimes after ng sunod-sunod na brownout or power surge, nagrereset ang Linksys router... i've experienced this na kaya maybe yung ibang secured eh nagiging unsecured.
