Who's AP is this?

[Compl33t]

I live in Stellenbosch, on campus, close to Minerva.

I'm running a little wireless network for my flatblock, in the IP range 192.168.1.x and I've recently picked up another AP with the range 10.64.2.x (AP Address 10.64.2.1)

I'm extremely curious as to who this is, because my AP is the only device that sees it. None of the other cards see this network.

Anyone?

might be worth mentioning the SSID of the AP.

Mmm time to go wardriving (wrong term, I know) compl33t

I think if you get ahold of a laptop and go driving around - well the closer you are to the AP, the stronger the signal (my educated guess). Maybe one day go out and find him, knock on the door and ask if you can come in for a cup of tea?

Or maybe its ICASA and you should steer far away

Or perhaps the reason why Compl33t's AP picks it up & noone else's - the signal is being directed only towards Compl33t with a directional reflector of sorts...could be an ICASA honeytrap...

How I picked it up...I use a program called RFlow Collector, that monitors the clients connected to your router. I only know of 3 wireless clients connected to my router, and I suddenly noticed 7. The other 4 are using a totally different IP range and hardware to me.

You could warddrive with the Linksys wrt54g, but this entails installing a kismet drone on it, and while you're scanning for networks, your wireless network is disabled. My network is quite crucial, so that's out of the question. I'd rather just ask around until I can find out who's it is. I can't afford a laptop/wifi card...

The other thing I'm hoping is that it is the University starting testing phases with their mesh...

Perhaps you should enable encryption then?

I have no problem with people accessing my network...my router just sees the clients, nothing more.
