I can put my hands up on this one. Kinnyglass comes from my personal time capsule. If its a cause for concern, I can certainly take it down, but ironically, I'm currently using it to allow one of our visitors to connect, because he can't get a good signal on ECS-WLAN.

Having said that, I do get a perfectly good signal on ECS-WLAN from my desk, even though I'm right beside the time capsule, so I have my doubts as to whether that's a cause.

Not quite sure were that's coming from, but its probably one of the AIC group iMacs. In a previous life, they were used by Alex for one of his summer's schools. Since then, they've took on new roles as personal machines. One is probably still generating an ad-hoc network that is no longer used or required.

If we could identify the hosts for all these things, perhaps it would be worth turning them all off simultaneously, at least for a while, to see if that makes any difference?
