It's not so much self confidence but past experience with technophobes blaming every problem they have with their computer on whoever touched it (or something related to it) last.
This is basically what I am going to end up doing. That, and attempting to place the access points as far away from each other as possible. Also, since our apartments aren't particular large I may suggest reducing the signal strength of the access points.
Luckily I am in a rent controlled apartment. I actually have been meaning to propose some sort of shared high-speed (or at least higher speed) network to my neighbors. I guess that this is a good time to do just that.
After speaking with several of my neighbors it turns out that Wi-Fi is actually not working for most of the people in the building. We may have to put together a shared network of some sort to solve the problem.
This is all rather interesting. The issue with the RNC delegate postings happened back in August so, while it may have something to do with the drive confiscation, I am not sure how to prove it.
The original issue was really quite moot as most Indymedia sites have logging turned off. Basically, the web access logs are useless.
The international connections of this whole affair are difficult to determine. Did the hosting company simply turn over a disk located overseas to the FBI? This is very odd.
I publish photos on Indybmedia sites (as they have open publishing) but I am not very involved in their day-to-day operations.

That's the real reason I don't want to work with my neighbors. As soon as I fix the problem they will bug me for free computer support.
Actually, I posted the question here since it's not specifically a vendor issue and I was wondering if anyone else is in the same situation.

Yes, I have changed the SSID (to no avail.)
Much of it is backed up, however, they run on a shoe-string so it is difficult to get systems back up quickly.
Honestly, the consequence of the name release people showing up in various consumes and annoying the delegates:

Big deal, and in any case the list of names was reposted from the Tampa Tribune (and other sources):

Disclosure: I occasionally post photos to Indymedia but I have nothing do with the day-to-day operations. In other words: I know nothing!
