Re: [Netstumbler] Browse Networks

You can use a GPS, map the access point, reverse lookup their address for 
their phone number, and give them a call. You could also, if they have WEP, 
break it, brute force the account for their server, change their SSID to 
something so that they may contact you. I have done such a thing at local 
libraries and such so i could talk to the owner of the AP and maybe give him 
some information in getting his wireless network secured to the best of his 
ability. Another alternative would be to make a cantenna, wait until you get 
the AP showed up in your sniffer, hook up your cantenna and walk until your 
signal gets the strongest, then look around and pick a house. This approach 
is may be faster, but if you're seen, you might want an excuse. So, that's 
my 2cents about locating those AP's around your house. Also, you might try 
and NetSend them a message from XP/2K and see if they have it enabled. K 
that's it.
