Ah! What antivirus program is that? And it's so strong that it won't let
you access ordinary web pages? Sounds rather useless. Why not just
unplug your computer instead?
My computers are all on battery power, UPS (uninterruptible power
supply), generator power, or virtualized for hot failover. My
internet connection is setup to switch to the neighbors wi-fi if a
failure is detected. In other words, my downtime resistant computer
system is protected from an unplugging failure and cannot be stopped,
be stopped, be stopped, be stopped, be stopped...
Given my lousy experience with AT&T internet (I've now switched to another carrier) I used to wonder about asking at least emergency use of the Wifi from each of my neighbors.
My problems now seem to be solved, but I wonder: What security risks might their be in using someone else's Wifi? Seems unlikely to be worse than any public hot spot, but I don't know.
