hi all,

been searching around tonight for an answer to this question, but cant find anything about it on any engine or linuxquestions. i was installing10.1 on one of my boxes last night which has a wireless card, so it was down for most of the night. looking at the dhcp active table for my router i see an unfamilar name, "flight07", so i guess its quite obvious someone was using my router since last night. i guess the only reason this was allowed to happen was that the box i was installing on was off the network, and i limit the connections to the router at 4. (so there was one open) was curious to know how i could find out the ip address of the culprit? if its even possible? just got done setting up mac addresses of all my pcs so it doesnt happen again. .my curiosity has the better of me now and i want to open the router up , and see if it happens again so i can report it to my isp. any one have any experience like this?
