Why would you require a catering company for 6 litres of juice?

Don't concern yourself with responding, because no one gives a shit.

Why would I go to a catering company for 6 litres of juice? I can just pick that stuff up a Coles or Woolies on the way in. We ordered a whole bunch of things... that particular daylight robbery was in the price breakdown!

Stupid drink driving laws. If they weren't around, I would be able to drink the required amount of alcohol needed to deal with my working week so far.

So... leaving the house this morning I see the wireless light on my modem blinking. Now, I have unlimited usage so it's fine, but just for the sake of being a sorry bastard, I turned off my modem :lol:

So long free wifi to whoever was using it :lol:

You could just put a password on your Wi-Fi. As soon as you get home and turn it back on they will be able to use it again.

Yeah it has a password on it. Must be someone who knows how to crack in to things like this. I'll change it when I get back home but for now leaving it off.

Or it was your phone. Or laptop, or ipad, or whatever. Even when they are not in active use they still send packets between them and the wifi to make sure the connection is still strong. You know when you lose a bar of wifi? Your phone knows that because it sent a packet out and received it to check the connection.

Assuming someone has hacked your modem is dumb, especially when your only proof is not slowdown or suspicious data transfers, but a blinking light ffs.

You raise a good point, but;

• All computers/laptops in my house are off
• The iPad is off - turn it on when I'm commuting
• My phone's wifi is not connected

i think someone hacked your fridge too, BF.. it was making a strange humming sound even though you were about to walk out the door..

i recommend turning it off as well before you leave for work each day..
