About the hijacking, They use what is called war driving.. In my college security class I witnessed one classmate war drive my area. In 2 hours he had collected about 82 hot spots including both of the school's towers and 54 homes that are not secured. These homes failed to use WEP and it does not take long to get into "THIER" networks and out on the internet. The other hot spots between the gross total collected and the 54 unsecured ones were secured and would require the driver to gather 10 meg or more of internet traffic to break the codes. <br /> <br />I would simply string a cat 5 down to the basement.. If you are willing to string miles of itty bitty cables to and from switches in limited spaces I am sure you can find a spot to "drill" a hole into the basement and drop your cable down. <br /> <br />I am also interested if it is possible to "Control" a layout with a Laptop.
