My favorite was: This is not the WiFi you are looking for.
A neighbour once used “I Believe Wi Can Fi”
- “Waldo”
- “top secret”
I’ll add more when I see it hehehe
I used to see one here named Wi Believe I Can Fi.
No contributions, but a question. How many of these humorously-named networks are not secured?
When I had my Eero installed, I kept pronouncing it “arrow”, like Eero Saarinen, the architect who designed the Gateway Arch and a major office building in my city. The installer wondered what I was talking about, regarding the “arrow.”
50501 made the suggestion that everybody should change their WIFI network name to Antia.
My husband and friend set up my parents WIFI network Promiscuity.
They had teenagers from church at their house and one of them asked for the WIFI. She didn’t know the word and asked my dad what promiscuity meant. I think he changed it after that.
I lived in a small neighborhood about 10 years ago where, for some reason I can’t recall, people started naming their networks after bands from the 60s, 70s, and 80s. Mine was CHEAP_TRICK, but we had CREAM, MOODY_BLUES, and GRAND_FUNK. I don’t think that they were meant to be someone’s “favorite” band, because they got changed pretty frequently. Some were fairly obscure. I think it was just boomers reminiscing.
OK, my wife has clarified things re band names as wifi network names. (See my previous post.)
Turns out that it was 2013 and Boston was playing Chicago for the Stanley Cup. One neighbor used BOSTON and then somebody else changed their name to CHICAGO. That’s when I changed mine to CHEAP_TRICK as a joke. It kept going from there.
Hey, I’m 72. Give me a break.
“me encontre al patito juan” which appears to be a reference to a Spanish-language childrens cartoon.
My WiFi has been LockHimUp for several years now.
I’m chucking at the ones from @DavidNRockies , @OttoDaFe , @Thing.Fish , @Yodalicious . My neighborhood isn’t that clever . . .
@Monty mine’s locked down, and the other 8 in range seem to be.
Tripler
I think I need cooler neighbors.
Are there even still any wifi routers around that allow an unsecured connection? I don’t think so.
My neighborhood is boring. Best I got is “fastasshit”.
Mine is NSA Surveillance. Not nearly as creative as the ones listed.
One that I once saw, that has stuck in my memory*, was called Big Black Cock
*unrelated, but another thing that is perpetually stuck in my memory, such that I’ll randomly recite it, was a limerick I was scrawled in a bathroom stall my freshman year of college.
When I get up to wipe my ass
I like to pass a little gas
It cleans the hole,
And dries the bowl,
And shows I have a lot of class
I predict that I’ll be mumbling that one to myself on my deathbed.
Memory is a funny thing.
The best one I saw was T4GXP_66FN, and then there was the hilarious NOKIA-A3B4! HAHAHAHAHA
Wait. Those aren’t funny at all! Stupid boring Flanders.
I just searched for WiFi networks visible in my building. Most were anodyne things like Bell506 (presumably the apt. no., but one was Warrior of Light.
The best I’ve got in my building is Pancake*. Makes me think of changing mine to Syrup so we’d match.
* in English, which always surprises me living in Sweden.
Hm, I’m in an apartment complex, so there are lots in range. Right now, in addition to the generic ATTrandomnumbers ones, there’s…
