[QUOTE="Milt Hathaway, post: 88455, member: 26"] Re: Wireless routers Question: Doesn't that involve quite a bit more processing overhead in the WAP? Doesn't hiding the SSID at least keep every single person's phone from trying to connect? I know any script kiddie can see hidden SSIDs and sniff out and mimic MAC addresses, but I don't see those nearly as big a threat as the multitude of 2.4 and 5GHz xmitters that everyone in the audience is carrying, all trying to find a mate during the show.
