My WiFi is ‘Secret Rebel Base’.
My neighbours have added ‘Jabba the Hub’, ‘Obi Lan Kenobi’, and ‘Red WiFi-ve Standing By’. This makes me happy.
Anyone else live in a neighbourhood that embraces this kind of WiFi silliness?

All of my WiFi names have been taken from the game American McGee’s Alice (the first one): “Pool of Tears”, “Skool Daze”, “Hollow Hideaway”, “Mystifying Madness”, etc. Sadly, all of my neighbors are computer illiterate, so they always leave the router’s default name.
I had one once “FBI Surveillance Van 7” and the neighbors renamed to “CIA Underground Bunker” and “International War Criminal”
In my last apartment I had mine set to “FBI Surveillance Van 9” and a neighbor set theirs to “Suspicious Drug Den”. Before that several of us changed to variations of “Library Wifi Ext #” to pick on the Librarian next door. Outside of those, my favorite was “Need a Wifi password?” With the password set to “WhyNotZoidberg?” I had the meme printed on the fridge and everything.

One of our neighbours has his set to “SAPS Surveillance Van” - “SAPS”, South African Police Services.
Ours is named after my son’s YouTube channel… free advertising!

Was on a train to London once and spotted a wifi called ‘I shaved your mum’. I still chuckle about it now.
Obi W-Lan Kenobi is mine
I used to have ‘FBI Van 21’ back in the 2010s but haven’t really cared in recent years
I’m in IT and use my hotspot as an internet umbrella for troubleshooting - my hotspot name is “FBI Surveillance Van”. (I also carry a usb-c to eth adapter for those stubborn hardline devices)
There are five FBI Surveillance Vans in my range y’all need to get a new joke.
That’s weird though, now there’s six…
Sorry, FBI joke innovation is halted. New jokes are on ICE

I went with it_hertz_when_IP but have yet to see anyone with similar naming…
I went with 8HzWAN_IP for the same effect.
All my neighbors are lame but I have two routers, giving me a total of six SSIDs to play with. So I have wifi names like “Trump Fucks Kids”, “Charlie Kirk was a Literal Nazi”, and “Where are the Epstein Files”?
Do you have 2.4, 5, and guest on each?
One router (the gateway) has a 2.4 and a 5ghz radio. The other one (the relay), a 2.4 and three 5ghz radios.
Ohhh! Super cool!

Forgot to mention that I live in a red state too.
The “All my neighbors are lame” part makes sense now.
Love it
