high powered marauder in area
was having trouble with erratic ordinary WIFI reception. thought it was other wifi signals drifting in from the local area and a nearby shopping center. changed ap to a diffirent channel ( was 6 changed to 11). erractic reception with what appeared to be a good received signal started again after some time. late at night last week while setting up a wifi laptop with an arbritrarily non-default chosen SSID noticed another same named and channel signal using netstumbler. ssid was visible. router type was hidden. thing was power was off the scale ( like Star Trek). signal does not seem to be coming from an adjacent area. signal ( or at least SSID) disappeared for a time. then same mac id appeared on channel 11. any ideas ?
thanks
