Just me and no one else
I'm also the only one in my entire town that has a Mac computer. 🙁
I really need to change the name.
 
there's me: d-link and a neighbor: linksys. we were obviously not very creative when choosing names for our networks.
 
there is: BeBox (i wonder if that is a real beos user who knows), Walcorde (our neighbour and the street that i live on), and there is me: Apple. I change my network id quite often. Before i was called: iPod, Rainbow Marmalade, Rainbow Wifi. I like the idea of projecting different names in the air, something cool about it.
 
Just me right now. Sometimes I can get my church and another one across the street somewhere.

Methinks Charlotte needs to find something more interesting to do than make Wi-Fi hotspots. Unless, of course, Charlotte is your city. In which case, why all the overlap from non-sequential routers?

Go on then, seeing as how my new MacBook is my first ever wireless enabled computer... 🙂

Two are in range...

...neither of them are mine and both are password protected, so no naughty wifi capers for me.

Charlotte Wi-Fi is a company which has wired our building (where I live) with wireless access. Of course, you have to subscribe to it to use it. I have my own cable modem and wireless router... don't want to compete with my neighbors for bandwidth, you know. 🙂
 
Just my network. And I know the SSID name is retarded, I can't think of anything better 😀

I know for a fact I can connect to "linksys" and use it, but they were at least smart enough to change their router's default login/password. 😉
