I've been thinking of renaming mine to "VirusTestNetwork", but I don't broadcast my SSID anyway, so it would be a waste.

I do the same thing, but I do have an old, unused Linksys WRT sitting around that I could have some fun with.

I know a college student that needed to setup an unsecured wireless network (his reason didn’t make sense to me, but he said he needed to do it.)

He called it “Virus Distribution Test”.

Yeah, I don’t broadcast my SSID either.

And yes, I’ve changed the name of my wireless network.

Which reminds me, I need to add a firewall between my wireless router/firewall and my main network.

I’m paranoid that way.
