The mystery of the wireless access in my apartment deepens... I haven't used the wireless network much at all, so I didn't notice discrepancies until I used it here today, and talked with more knowledgeable people. Signs point to it not being CWRUnet, since it allowed me to surf anywhere without connecting through the VPN, and I'm pretty sure it gave me a 192.x.x.x address. But it's definitely called CWRUnetWireless, and it's not just a weird ghost on the computer since it persists across reinstalling the entire system from scratch.
So now the question is not "how does CWRUnet reach my apartment", but instead "why is there an open access point called CWRUnetWireless near my apartment, and who is serving it"?
