Just someone with a Wi-Fi connection playing jokes with their network name. I used to set mine for MobileDOT5 and turn my cb on just to hear the complainers. Now mines called pleasure palace
double yellow and Lepton1 Thank this. -
You can't get decent wifi at pilot/j anymore
Local guys park close and have figured out how to steal all the bandwidth
They download porn and movies and everyone is left wondering wtf?
I've called pilot, they know what's going on and they'll go in and shut the guy down, buy ten minutes later he's back under a diff account.
I've given up. -
Ya you see this alot. "Fbi surveillance van 3" is popular too
-
I'm just mad that I didn't think of it. lol
-
Mine says U.S. drone beta testing.

Yea, I used to have mine set to "FBI Surveillance Van #582" when sharing from my phone. I've setup Skynet on my in-laws. Mine is simply ]-o-[ (a Tie Fighter) for my home network.
You can google funny wireless names and get some ideas if you care.

If you download cleaner master not only does it get rid of junk but you can keep someone from piggybacking off your wifi acct. It's easy to use another acct and I think this is the best tool against it.

Wifi securement is your best defense. I don't wifi at all. And that smart phone will try to connect any way it can if it is not already in airplane mode.
To be blunt, law enforcment uses Sting ray and similar that has been invented approx 2006. The courts have been trying to get the Law to come and admit that they do warrentless searches of all cell phones that are forced to connect to their secret stingray because the stingray mimics a cell tower, causing every phone in range to connect TO IT instead. Then it gets vacumned into the stingray you wont notice unless your 4G dropped to 2G or your call quit working. Then you are busy and distracted redailing not to notice that your phone is pouring out data.
I don't use my phone much. Anyone want to watch me play chess with myself is more than welcome. How boring. I might text my spouse now and then. How boring.
It's not what you can see or the jokers you need to worry about. If you are on the dark side, what you do not see will be the ones watching you.
If you really want to have fun, download and use wireless mapping. Not only to seek out wireless routers but also use the wireless router in someone's building itself to locate humans moving about or simply breathing via it's waves of signal bouncing off bodies through the walls to your phone or computer tablet.Rusty Trawler and snowwy Thank this.
