Unsecure wireless networks

fletch · 2006-02-19 18:13:54

Anybody know how I can find out the names of computers connected to a wireless network. I've picked up a few unsecrured wireless networks in my neighbourhood and would like to go tell them that their connection is not secure. Help appreciated
