Geocache Description:


This is a 2 part multi-cache. The first waypoint is an 802.11b wireless access point. You do not need to actually find the access point, you just need to receive and decode the WiFi signal from it. You do not need to connect to the access point - in fact there is nothing connected to it.

Wardriving is the act of searching for Wi-Fi wireless networks by a person in a moving verhicle, using a portable computer or PDA.  Wardriving was derived from the term wardialing from the 1983 film WarGames, which involved searching for computer systems to connect to, using software that dialed numbers sequentially to see which ones were connected to a fax machine or computer.

At the posted coordinates, you should be able to receive a signal from a number of WiFi Access Points.  You will have to determine which one(s) are of use to you in order to find the final stage.  After which, it will be a short drive to the location where you will find a container befitting of one of my favorite geocaching themes.

While this type of cache has been done before by others, I want to give specific thanks to nikcap whose WarDriving (GC4W7G7) cache was my inspiration for creating a similar cache with a different spin.

NOTE: Please do not try to remove the container from its hiding spot.  Container screws open from the bottom.
