Wi-Fi names.

[trekkiedane]

From this BBC-article:

/.../ this is an era of bite-sized self-expression. It's possible to see names like "Drop it like it's hotspot", "Terror network", and "Virus Detected Shutting Down". Or witticisms like "Pretty fly for a Wi-Fi" and "Wi Believe I Can Fi".

If you've ever seen a funny network-name, here's the thread to post it in!

The only thing I've noticed of the sort is "Free Christiania" -which is more of a political statement than a witticism of course- but nevertheless was a fun thing to see when I was looking for the name of the café I was in at the time.

'FBI Surveillance Van 2'+ 'FBI Surveillance Van 5' for each bandwidth of my router
Some people in our complex looked a little worried after we moved in.

Oooh, good ones

The name I'm currently using, is rather pedestrian: it's just the name of my cat!
I do plan to think up something else though, something befittingly radical as being the only one within reach that is using channel 12 rather than on top of everyone else on channel 6

I named my old connection Sirens Wailing. And then I moved to a location with a hospital down the street, so we had ambulances driving by at all hours. Rather prophetic name I suppose!

I'm naming my next one Millionaire.

I came across this one a while back.

I have one in my neighborhood called, "Don't go outside I can see you".

 

[Locutus of Bored]

I saw UCantStopTheSignal once.

Our Wifi is SmushNet II, it's named after my wives cat nickname. The cats name is Acer but she calls him Smush. Why, I have no clue. So our Wifi is named after him and so is her iPhone and iPad which are called Smush Phone 5 and Smush Pad 2.

 

[Chris3123]

My sister named hers "AbrahamLinksys".

 

[Lumi]

^ That's adorable.

For years, mine was called "kaka" because my brother is an idiot and I didn't know how to change it... now it's just reset to Linksys.

Mine used to be Wesley4Eva. I told my roommate, who was also a Trekkie, to make it something Trek related, and that's what he came up with!

Here's two I remember from failblog, so take it with a grain of salt:

Sorry For Loud Sex At 3 AM

Click here for internet, Mom

Something hubby chose for one of our stupid neighbors:
"ChangeYourPasswordIHackedYourAccount."

 

[Random_Spock]

Haven't seen any good ones, but I did see a creepy one once though <_<. My neighbors by me now don't have names for their wi-fi.

 

[Starbreaker]

My router is HAL 9000. My media center happens to be Galactic Library. I love the FBI Surveillance Van one.

There's a shop called CeX that trades in DVDs, games and electronics. Someone posted this picture on twitter after they noticed their local shops Wifi SSIDs.
