I know when I first got my WiFi, I couldn't figure out why I had such a bad signal. The AP was behind the microwave, with a wall in between. (New home, paper thin walls) I remembered that microwaves cause interference and I moved it to the other side of the computer room. The signal went to full. It is about time they did something about it.
It doesn't, but this guy was out looking for kiddie porn. I doubt he was trying too hard to access one AP. If he couldn't access that one he'd have moved on I'm sure.
This was obviously someone without much knowledge in wireless networking. I personally have been too lazy to setup SSIDs, so I just do MAC filters for all of my computers, tedious to set it up, but once it's done it's done. No need to remember numbers after a format or anything.
