ok, im still away for the holidays and have my laptop with wireless web. right now I am connected to the net through my neighbor acrss the streets wireless router, hi speed connection. they have no password, or WEP security. since I'm already on their network, is there any way to access their PC? or anything else i can do? if i did something i shouldnt do online, could it be traced back to my personal computer, or would it trace back as far as my neighbor, and thats it?

Find out what the private IP address range is for their router. For example, 192.168.1.101-104. Then if you have any luck and computers are turned on try the following in the run box:

\\192.168.1.xxx\C$

replace the "xxx" with the three numbers in the last octet of another computer on the network. I haven't done it via using the IP address but I have done it using the name of the computer IE

\\Agus\C$

and

\\Agus\ADMIN$

But I imagine it should work the other way around.

Edit: I'm not entirely sure why I quoted your post so I just deleted the quote...

You should be able to see his computers, by default they will be addressed as 192.168.x.x

Anything done through his connection can't really be traced back to you. But when they ask him about it and he denys it they will probably come knock at your door.

thanks guys

could also just go get languard scan your network wide and slow

it'll show you open shares and make it hella easier than typing ips one by one into drive map box

and if you need to know ips in use and you have access to router

odds are neighbour is using dhcp

so router should have list of leased ips

then just drop those ips into languard or scanner of choice

course neighbor might also have geeki 15 yr old son in basement with static ips cuz he is sooper l33t and then wont show up in address list

scan to be sure

if you wanna be a dink that is
