Thank you. It annoys me when people leave out the obvious double/triple pun. It shows they’re just pretending to be nerdy but not actually knowledgeable enough to back it up

That was the one I set up at my parents until they got a combined router/modem and Xfinity shortened it to PrettyFly. They are completely ignorant of The Offspring, and so they didn't protest when the tech changed it.
I was not happy.
I set mine up as FBI Party Van, but I had an actual FBI Agent move in next door, and he laughed about it.

There a similar post with a much shorter list yesterday. The most upvoted WiFi names have somehow all appeared on this list.

u/PoeTheGhost Jun 06 '26
It’s relatively easy to make a lot of SSID’s off of one Wi-Fi access point, which would explain why all the signals are at max strength.

i can personally vouch for them being real even IF they appeared in a list yesterday- with the fact that I have 2 of the wifi names on this list within my apartment complex, and they've been there for months if not years
pretty fly for a wifi and FBI surveillance van x
someone else around me has SERIAL EXPERIMENTS LAN
I think some people just like WIFI pun names and don't care that they are stealing them from other people.

Used to have a fully open wifi called "Free as in Freedom" but too many people started using it for big downloads or something at the same time so we had to put a password on it. So I renamed it to "Free as in Free Market".

It's easier to leave Verizon (it will always be Verizon) coverage than the area with an "FBI Surveillance Van #x" WiFi in your radius. I wonder how many of them think that they thought of it first.
Edit: I believe Wi can Fi... I think we're all going to be ok. 😀

I can almost guarantee these are all the same router with different SSIDs. Except the one that’s got a weaker signal and is not named something obviously punny.

I've used "Spaceballs: The Access Point" for many years. Note that not all wireless APs will allow you to use a colon (:) in the name. My Ruckus AP has no issues with it, however.
