“But when you get a Federal License for one, you agree to the ITU treaties.”

Oh - thanks! So not quite the same as if I turn off my unprotected WI-FI and my neighbor using it gets mad.

WI-FI spectrum, by federal law, and treaty, is wide open (frequencies and powers vary by country), as long as you remain in the power constraints of the law. ;)

If you really want to mess with your neighbor, though, leave your access point open, un-encrypted, and protect it with MAC address allow/disallow. One in 200 can figure out why they can't connect. ;)

Cruel barstid, am I.
