This is odd....

[Baymule]

While I admire your spunk and spirit, I honestly think happiness is more important. Tell me to shut up and MYOB and I won't get my feelings hurt or get mad. But maybe this home has become a badge of determination. You got divorced, almost lost it, but you made it. You paid it off and it is YOURS. You overcame adversity and hard times and you have a lot of emotional I DID IT wrapped up in it. Creepy Neighbor just gets your hackles up, I can hear you growling and your teeth snapping. LOL

I get it. I have a physco ex that I delighted in rubbing his nose in "Look at me now" It felt good. My life is great, his is a trail of broken relationships and screw ups. Hahaha.

If you sell and move, it doesn't make you the loser and him the winner. It makes you the winner because you have a better neighborhood and better place where you are happy.

I'm shutting up now.....

Home should be a safe and happy place. I’ll leave it to you now.

I can’t blame you on that count but I wouldn’t want the stress. If you sell out, post carefully so it’s sold before he has a clue!

Thats the problem, if I move he will know. He lives behind me on a hill and has a clear view of my house. He knows when Im not home. He works nights and is home during the day. It did stress me out at first, but I dont care anymore so I ignore him. That ticks him off more than anything. I cant afford to move anyway so just have yo deal with it.

I'm a pretty firm believer in never being run off of anywhere I really want to be.

As far as your wifi, it sounds like a much stronger password is in order, as well as a good solid firewall, and up to date encryption, but you should be able to see if/when someone else is logged on to your network simply by watching up/down data stream thru the network.
He'd have to go to some pretty far lengths to get your password even with keylogger software...simply because he still has to have access to the device itself, assuming of course, you have private and not public protocols/permissions set.

Its att router. All I know is how to change the pswrd. The tech guys set it up. Unfortunately, you can only use 10 caps and numbers when changing passwords. It wont let me use special characters. Its the stringest protocols you can use. I m not tech savvy. I dont know how to see if anyone is logged on when they arent supposed to. I dont think he has the access code cause hed have get it from the router in the house.

Well, I wouldn't exactly use the words 'unfortunately' or 'only' regarding the possibilities. You can use any combination of 0 thru 9 and the 26 letters of the alphabet. The general rule for solving for a number of combinations is the number of options to the power of the number of spaces. In this case you have 36 options (26 letter + 10 numbers) and 10 spaces. 36^10 is 3656158440062976.

Written out, , you have around 3.7 quadrillion possible unique combinations, assuming you have to enter them in the correct order.
However, IF you are allowed to use both upper and lower case letters, the number of unique possibilities are even more staggering.

IF, using a brute force password cracker algorithm , trying combinations at the rate of 1 million combos every second, it would take over 4000 years, but, if your neighbor has a relatively modern and fast computer and can try at a rate of 1 billion combinations per second, he can crack it in around 17 seconds........except that most 'good' network login protocols have a wait period between unsuccessful login attempts and if a pre-set # of unsuccessful login attempts are tried, the network gets locked down and even the legal user of the account can't log in without admin privileges or getting their password reset by whatever network they are using.

ATT only lets you use 10 letters or numbers only. It wont accept anything longer. I have spent hours on the phone with them about it. So my only options are to change the pswrd once a month and ssid. Ive tried using other routers but they dont work.

Yeah, guess you can hear that teeth nashing all the way over there, huh? I honestly cant move. I cant afford it. I cant get a loan because of my credit. The only way I can move is if I win the lottery. And yes, this home is a badge.Nobody thought I could keep this place after the divorce and told me so, but I proved them wrong. Dont tell me I cant do something or cant because I will prove you wrong.
You hit the nail on the head with your reply. Dont you ever shut up! I admire your candor and advice. Your just awesome! I liked the emoji, too.
