Define "hack."

Do you literally mean hacking a password-protected wireless connection, or do you just mean accessing a connection no one has bothered to protect? If the latter, that's not technically hacking.

If it's unsecured great but if not; hack into it.
But seriously thou I do not recommend doing that. I pay for my own net.
