Just wondering, because I think it's really cool how you can connect to other peoples wireless networks on your laptop.

Haha, it's cool but isn't it illiegal? Well , I suppose it isn't if the wireless networks aren't protected with a password. You can only LOG ON to ONE wireless network at a time, but you can detect a bunch. It just depends how many are in range. Like, in the airport I can detect like 12 at a time. [I find it interesting to see what people 'name' their wireless networks] Well, hope this helped!

An unlimited amount. Basically it will see any network that is in range. Connecting to strange networks can get you in trouble if the owner of the network sees.

there is no limit as such. If there is a connection within the range it will highlighted in your wireless network connections window.

It can detect as many that are within range.
But they are usually protected with a password or a key to stop other people from connecting.

you shouldn't connect to other people's wifi!
you can detect all that are present in the area, but you should only use your own, if you are on someone else's network, they can get in to your computer as long as you are on it because they yave the master password to their wifi, the wifi will let them in.
FYI!
don't use other people's networks unless you are willing to pay them for it!

As many as it can, as long it is within the range of wireless signal.

As many as an unethical person could connect to.
You ought to be ashamed of yourself!

I believe that you can connect to at least ten, I think... Just check the user's manual for your computer/laptop.
