No signal

By XxFA1LxX - This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff - Canada - Calgary

Today, my neighbors bought a signal scrambler to stop their kids from going on the internet at night. Too bad it blocks my internet too. FML

A scrambler, really? Has your neighbour ever heard of passwords and parental control? It's not that hard.

Woah a scrambler? It's not that hard to block Internet access for kids

If you're talking about a jammer, OP, they are illegal in Canada. If they won't stop using it, you could report the interference to your communications regulator. However, all they need to do is turn off their wifi at night and not give him the kind of access that he can turn it back on. Or if they need the wifi they could change the network password at night.

Don't worry. The FCC will show up at their door shorty.

tney do realize that they can set their router to block internet during certain time frames.... way cheaper changing a simple setting on existing hardware than buying more..

The reason your wifi doesn't work anymore is because your neighbors' children were leeching off you and the parents couldn't unplug anything so they bought a scrambler.

Other then the rare late night ****, why even bother on the Internet at night.

During the day, download the loudest death metal/dubstep to itunes. At night, put the volume full blast and refuse to turn it off until they turn off their signal scrammer.

Your neighbours are ******* idiots. Either password lock the comp itself or adjust the router settings to block internet access either across the board or for specific mac addresses. You can have them charged if they dont turn it off.

That is a federal crime if you're in the US!
