So I'm setting up a new laptop that has wireless capabilities and the first thing that pops up when Windows loads up is a little bubble that says "wireless networks detected".

We don't have a wireless network, so I'm intrigued. I click the window and I see one wireless network, "tpd - mobile".

I have a guess as to whose network that is, anyone else want to take a guess? I don't think its too hard to figure out.

Don't focus on "mobile".

Focus on "tpd".

Yep.

I clicked it once already just for kicks, and its looking for a network key.

We have a training center for them right across the street.

So who wants warrants?

Before we upgraded our wirless land lines at the house they used to do all sorts of Bizzare things to our laptops.

Very weird, switching to the higher end models seemed to fix it up though.
