One thing the Supra is not good at....wardriving...

[Kai]

Hehehe, yes, i'm out wardriving currently, sat in my supra at 3am parked outside a random house with an unsecured wireless router so i can get my daily fix of the internet....

I have noticed though, that unless i put the laptop on the roof of the supra, theres no real space in the cabin to properly use the laptop (Dell Latitude C640), which is slightly annoying....anyone here done wardriving? Anyone got tips on how to use a laptop successfully whilst still stuffed into your supra?

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

Woot! Good going Kai!

Just in case you dont know... War driving is driving around with a laptop looking for unsecre wireless internet conections....

 

[miggles]

lol, sounds like fun, i mite have to give it a go.(even though ive got a 24Mb connection at home)

 

[inline6]

Thats hilarious.

A fine example of another mkiii owner on a budget.

 

[Kai]

Lol - budget, yes, although i just have to wait for BT to pull their finger out and come install my 8mbit internet connection at home. took them a month to get the freakin phone working

It's not too bad wardriving, as long as, i find, you put the laptop on the roof. Not only does the laptop get nice and cool, but you actually have room to type!

My dome lights dont work at all, buttons or not - so inside the car, i found it difficult to see wtf i was typing

 

[Kai]

Argh - i'm getting tired - my laptops batteries are outlasting me by the looks of it

wow that's a true supramania member right there.... posting from his supra.

 

[Tanya]

LOL WTF Ive never heard of this, you crazy people!

 

[TobyCat]

I usually put the laptop ontop of my backpack which is full of text books. Works OK on the passenger seat (lots of books) or the center console (only a few books).

 

[Brewster]

wow people actually do this?

 

[MKIIINA]

i use my psp and just cruise around from time to time. always interesting who all leaves their connections wide open, plus its good if you have a supra issue!

 

[ForcedTorque]

wow people actually do this?

Obviously they do...............AND............they even have a name for it!haha

I was so let down when I found the definition of WARdriving.......was looking for something much more fun.

 

[Chris86.5]

hahaha its only an internet connection its not like hacking into someones computer.

 

[outofstep]

FYI, there was a big story about this the other day; I'll try and find the link. The dude wardriving got caught and got 8 years for unauthorized use of someone else's interweb tubes connection.

 

[themadhatter]

i use to war drive but now that i figured out school has a free wifi hangout why bother

 

[RHDMK3]

That's friggin awesome man!! Hell yeah!!

 

[emiliorescigno]

I've gone wardriving in my Supie before. The AC power adapter blew my dash fuse

 

[MKivSupra_Rob]

why is it called war driving? To me war driving would be like racing + durby all flatout style hitting eachother i nwhich case i thin kthe supra would be wicked, speed of a sports car, weight of a tank.

 

[Turbo. Targa. Life.]

Dude...houses are over rated.
Starbucks
Panera
Hotels
Seriously there are so many better places to get a wifi connection :hs:

 

[annoyingrob]

My laptop fits perfectly in the little depression in the back seats...... turn around, and there's your laptop.
