My guest WiFi is called Honeypot. I leave it up even when guests aren't around, but for some reason none of my neighbors have tried to connect. Either they're all much more tech savvy or much less tech savvy than I give them credit.

Mine's We don't have WiFi

It's fun when guests ask "what's your WiFi called?" I tell them and they're baffled by all the electronics everywhere and me "not having" WiFi.
