If its a wifi connection it is picking up then its NOT the car! Someone close by must have a wifi SSID of Rarotonga.

The password you are looking for is the WEP key. If you have a laptop with wireless try sniffing for wireless networks and see if it pops up there too.

I have the same network listing (RAROTONGA) available on my laptop Wi- Fi connection options also?

Looks like you have a neighbour who has a favourite place for their holiday in Rarotonga

Never even knew the place existed, there you go!

Thanks gentlemen - so I now know where to go on holiday

Gazellio / nbunney - Found the 2121 info you have been referring to in the LR handbook, will have a go at setting this up soon. Cheers

Regarding RAROTONGA - I have driven my car up and down the road where I live whilst scanning available networks...sure enough - as you have suggested - the signal disappears the further I am from my address - so it isnt the car after all that (however - signal strength still strong stood next to car parked on driveway)

Paranoia over!

...but - RAROTONGA / RAnge ROver TONGA that has got to be some coincidence hasn't it

it could just be one HELL of a coincidence.

I take it your wifi at home is NOT called that...? Discovery 4 HSE

Not that I am aware of ! - Jeeez, that would be embarrasing, wouldn't it?

No - We use a simple SKY wi-fi set up with a SKY****** link name and the signal strength is stronger on our drive way - not from indoors.

(I think it is coming from a house 3 doors away judging by the signal strength being displayed on the phone as you approach that address)

Install it on your laptop, run it, and it will scan all the wifi SSIDs in your area. Then take a walk up and down the street .....

Or you've got a jealous neighbour who always wanted a tonga green RR and he's named his wireless network after your car!! Hell of a coincidence though!! I've also never heard of Rarotonga so hereby nominate Adam as our first "Rough guide to 'insertcountryhere' " representative to answer all questions geographical.  Steve
