through about anywhere they wanted to in less time that it takes for me<br>
to unlock both door locks. Locks keep out only the lesser determined.<br>
It's only slightly harder to get through a brick wall. Concrete blocks<br>
are a joke. We're safe only because there isn't anyone out there<br>
seriously interested in getting to us or there are easier ways of<br>
getting what they want.<br>

<br>My new wireless router is outside my firewall and uses a single outbound IP. In order to get into my LAN, you have to ssh with port knocking rules. The wireless uses a 192. IP scheme and my LAN does not. My router is also completely open and free to use. With all the other routers on my street ( I can see 12 with a signal strong enough to connect to other than mine) and they are all "locked" with the default wep/wap/monkeycrap so no one can do anything on the block outside their own yard ('cept me!), I figured running my rig at the max power output and making it free to use was contrary enough to raise eyebrows. My daughter can now get her netbook online 3 doors down inside a brick house without the owners trying to remember their password for her. :-)<br>
