Hope you're running a personal firewall then... if you can get onto their network, they can get onto yours.

1. I am locked down
2. I don't do any personal stuff over wi-fi.
3. I know my neighbors and trust me, all they know about computers is you press the on button and click the innernets button.
ChadTower:
I'm assuming by personal stuff you mean things with identity info... and since it would be foolish to work on someone else's connection... are you just gaming on theirs? Browsing the web? Just curious.
BTW, they don't have to be competent themselves... all they need to do is have a curious guest. I was at my friend's house last year and noticed they had *3* unwanted IPs using their WiFi... and none of them had personal firewalls. I only set up MAC filtering for them but I could easily have wiped those 3 machines if I wanted.

So, anyone else with Verizon having issues? :'(

I guess not...my upload seems kinda messed up, but my dad is using the wi-fi right now, and that might have altered the results. I also have DynDNS and VNC running.
EDIT: Why do I have such a high ping? Can anyone help me with this?
