Need L33t H4cc0r Assistance

[spray]

I have a broadband connection installed in my student house and have it set up with a wireless router.

when i first purchased it i sent a note to my housemates saying they were welcome to make use of it so long as they gave me some money toward it.

lately i've noticed a drop in speed on the network, check my virtual server today and lo and behold some cheeky fuck is using my broadband. i know i know, i should just make it encrypted, i will tonight and then the problem will go away.

however, first i wanna have some fun. by hitting run on the windows start menu and then his i.p. on the network \\10.0.0.3 i was able to see his shared documents, which is nothing.

i clicked the one level up icon and see the computer is called peterzhou, certain he lives here as zhuo gets mail here.

basically is there anything i place on his computer that would be akin to those pictures that appear when people steal bandwidth with pictures. or something to just crash his computer and then display a message?

unfortunately the guy has no printers installed or i would have sent a hundred pages of stop stealing my internet.

Back in my Uni days we used Back Orifice and NetBus to play havoc - is that still going on now?

subseven?

Hell you could even install it physically if he lives in your house, just sneak into his room!

here is a useful link

Just encrypt and forget. If you are silly enough to leave your wireless network unprotected, you should expect people to leech off it

You can always fill his harddrive (if shared documents is writeable), just write a batch file that copies a large dummy file over and over...

Or just encyrpt/mac address filter it like Rico said

encrypted

i like the sound of yaustars idea the best, make a few gigs disappear every few days, might unencrypt the network for my last week here and then just slowly go to town.

Dumb question,but how do you check your virtual server?

I've wep encrypted mine, but am still sure that some git gets through....

well when i type in my router's i.p. address into firefox i am taken to a front page where i have to log in with the admin password and i'm then presented with a page on info which details various things including all the i.p. addresses running through the router, thats where i saw the extra user.

lubidog: Try opening up 192.168.1.1 in your web browser
(or 192.168.0.1 or ... check manual)

Then you usually get a username/password prompt, for instance mine are admin/admin. Once logged in you'll get access to all sorts of stuff.

Almost all routers/switches have a web interface nowadays.

Cheers, I've done that and their are a couple of 'other' ip addresses!!!

So they can get through my Wep encryption!!!

I'll have to look into this!

But thanks for the info!

are you sure you don't just have multiple computers?

 

[lubidog]

Nope, just one lonely laptop. I live in a block of flats here, a couple of young guys as neighbours. There are 3 networks I can find, all wep locked....
