    Whenever I try to nab somebody elses network it requests the IP address.
    And of course I don't have the IP address of somebody elses network, so I guess thats out of the equation?

    Also in the UK it's very common for people to break into other peoples wireless networks, it sucks But so does the state of our internet services, so it is understandable
    Fair enough then. Here there are 5 different wireless networks every 10 metres, and people are stupid so maybe half of them are secured. Like I said, war-driving doesn't really happen (at least not to me or my friends/neighbours), so the chances of somebody actually knowing what MAC spoofing or cracking encryption is are quite low. I guess I'm lucky to live here then.

    Turn the security on the router down to WEP when you want to use your DS then turn it back up to WPA when you've finished?
