I go to access my wifi on my mobile phone and see the above Shock

Is it me they're talking about?

The mysterious wifi name is no longer showing now here, just BigD and another BT one right now. Thinking about it BigD was missing earlier when I saw the more interesting one. I still haven't changed mine, but I want to Grin BigD is a Hmm Actually.. better not, I have no proof it was them

Argh that didn't work I meant "BigD is a C*"

Ours is called The Abyss. Dh's choice. He is amused by some of these though!

Geocentric · 19/08/2011 18:06

If I leave it up to DH he'll probably put something football-related...

CheerfulYank · 19/08/2011 18:28

I've seen one called GetYourOwnInternet :)

HappyCamelIsDoingMyLaundry · 19/08/2011 18:30

Lovely. My neighbour has "get your own router" which has made my DH jealous as he wishes he thought of it first.

LadyTena · 19/08/2011 18:34

I'm going to call mine 'I can see in your window.' just to make all my neighbours paranoid.

MotherMucca · 19/08/2011 18:57

Shock ALovely. Really?

I was going to say "nice bra", but thought that would be a bit creepy.

I am not a weird stalker, promise!

musicposy · 19/08/2011 19:00

Ooh, I need something for mine. I've always used my surname, but can see 16 other routers on mine

It's just occured to me that all 16 will be able to see mine....

Our neighbours moan if our dogs so much as utter a sound in the garden, but their teenage sons play music at earsplitting volumes on a frequent basis. I need something that reflects that, I feel.......

musicposy · 19/08/2011 19:03

"Sortyourownhouseoutbeforeyoumoantous" would be succinct and anonymous enough not to cause outright war, maybe?

Portofino · 19/08/2011 19:08

Ours is called Kennybox which is somewhat dull. I don't know how to change it, but DH is currently in the pub, so should be amenable to changing it to something stalky when he gets home. We have nice solid concrete walls, so I can only see next door. Theirs is even more boring.

MotherMucca · 19/08/2011 19:09

Oh this is in classics Tea!

Geocentric · 19/08/2011 19:15

Porto, chances are they can only see you, too, so watch what you change it too!!! Grin

DontCallMeBaby · 19/08/2011 19:26

Ours is called YellowBear and I can currently see TalkTalk520. DULL. I can see one from the talking newspaper studio that is called "I am now secure!!!!!" which amuses me for some reason - I think it's the ludicrously excessive exclamation marks. Other than that I've hardly seen any amusing ones - one friend has Harry Potter wifi named by her daughter, and another has CARROT CAKE and BEETROOT, but usually I just see dull router names.

I could rename ours ShutUpYouCanineMorons after an earlier outburst against our neighbours' dogs, but I don't think the mutts would appreciate it. ThrowStuffAgainstYourOwnWallsNotTheAdjoiningOneYouDrunkFuckwit might go down well.

I think I'd mostly like to rename ours Percival though.

Teaandcakeplease · 19/08/2011 19:27

Oh my first thread moved to classics

If only I was more sharp witted and quick thinking then I'd suggest something to you musicposy.

I keep checking the wifi list now to see if they've changed it to something else now here.

Mine is 'TV Licence surveillance van 4' :)

It was almost 'DEA surveillance van 3'

peeriebear · 19/08/2011 19:36

All the ones I can see (about 6-7) all have dull names, though one is called Martha's. Ours is called Mojojojo :)

SkipToTheEnd · 19/08/2011 19:39

I've got Phil ollins living nearby apparently...

Panzee · 19/08/2011 19:40

I keep trying to change mine to a more nefarious one but it won't let me. Humph.

MrsChemist · 19/08/2011 19:42

Mine is "o2wirelessisawful" which is a little cruel of DH, I think, because it's been good to us. He changed it when it was playing up one day and hasn't changed it back.

I actually feel a little sad for our wi-fi. I bet all the neighbouring wi-fis are laughing at it.

EuphemiaMcGonagall · 19/08/2011 19:44

Ours doesn't have a name. Sad

We live in a detached bungalow and we're either out of the neighbours' range or none of them has WiFi.

How do I give it a name anyway?

Raahh · 19/08/2011 19:51

Ours is- Arnold G. DH can't remember why.

I can 'see' 11 at the moment- every single one is a bthub(number) or sky. Dullards.

ILikeToMoveItMoveIt · 19/08/2011 20:10

I think I may change ours to
'stoprevvingthatfuckingsportscarwhichyouonlyboughtbecauseyouareashortarseandanobnoxiousoneatthat'

ShoutyHamster · 19/08/2011 20:33

'ILostMyBallsInRio'

Yes, really!

Not ours though -we're boring :)
