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.

I have used Netstumbler to view AP's near my house so I can see who else is
running a network. How is it possible to get in contact with these people so
I can view / browse their networks and also offer mine to them?

I am a newbie with Wireless networks so I have no idea how I can browse
their networks. I can connect to them but do not know where to go from
there. I have tried using to Networks Connection utility on my WinXP Pro
machine but to no avail. Even though I am connected, I cannot see any files
/ user etc.

Any help someone can offer would be appreciated.

Headshot
