Sakura Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Have you named your wifi anything clever or funny? I see a lot of funny ones lately so what's yours? Or what is a funny one you've seen before? My current wifi is called "I believe Wi Can Fi". I'm not very good at clever names but I saw it somewhere and thought it was funny so used it for my own. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efaardvark Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 (edited) Mine are typically boring, like the "den wifi" that I'm using for - wait for it - the access point in the den. I've seen some funny ones though. If I were going to pick a funny one it would probably be something like "Extremely Slow Wi-Fi You Don’t Want to Use", "Not the Wi-Fi You’re Looking For", or "Nacho Wi-Fi". Or maybe something like "Not an FBI Surveillance Van", "The Wi-Fi That Shall Not Be Spoken", "Wi Fi Fo Fum", or "The Web of Lies". BTW these are all ones I've seen, not my own originals. Well, except for the den one. (Which probably isn't original either come to think of it.) Edited January 20 by efaardvark 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen the "Not an FBI Surveillance Van" ones a bunch Web of Lies is a funny one XD I've seen some like "2girls1Wifi", "Yer a Wifi Harry", and "99 Problems but Wifi ain't one" before too which I thought were great lol ~ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasuke Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I've seen "One wifi to rule them all", "Begin loading viruses?", and "Hot single Wifis in your area". My parents have a weirdly named one, I set it up as "Mom click this one" so she would know which one to use lol. Mine isn't special right now, just the generic one it got set up with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh Lord XD My dad tbh is pretty good at this stuff, but my mom isn't. She kind of goes into one of those rages about technology when you try to explain something to her so I try to keep it simple and basic ~ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to give credit to my parents and even grandparents however for being pretty welcoming of learning new technologies. Even though they don't always get it, they try. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mom just doesn't, I mean she tries but then she gets angry and yells at whoever is helping so it makes it difficult to want to lol ~ My dad is more of the technology person I guess, at least he understands most of it or tries. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mother on the other hand was not a tech person, just turning on the TV and selecting a channel was too much for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind explaining it, I understand that their generation didn't grow up with all the new tech we have today and it can be hard to learn, but it's difficult to do that when the other person is getting angry. It makes you feel like you don't want to help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to show someone how to operate something the way it's supposed to be operated rather than how they think it should it should be operated can be a uphill task. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly think mobile phones are pretty easy to understand if you take a little bit of time to understand them and really convenient too. 10 hours ago, Sasuke said: I don't mind explaining it, I understand that their generation didn't grow up with all the new tech we have today and it can be hard to learn, but it's difficult to do that when the other person is getting angry.

When I worked in tech support that's about all I did lol but even making it simple as possible such as with Wifi if someone doesn't wanna learn it they are just going to get mad x.x 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sakura Posted January 30 Author Share Posted January 30 That annoys me too, when someone askes you to explain something, you do, and then they don't want to really learn it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metro Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Honestly, my home wifi is just my surname, but my hot spot for mobile data is "You're Welcome" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animedragon Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 My Wi-Fi's name is just my service provider's name followed by a string of numbers. I don't actually use the Wi-Fi because my house has a wired network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
