[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	The hotel most likely has the ports you need closed. So yes, SOL. -----signature----- What ads? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/

	Find the nearest bar/coffee shop with free wifi, try again, but blindly try logging on with the URL bar of your web browser. 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1. If you get a logon prompt, try the defaults like l:admin p:password or something stupid. If you get in, do an 'ipconfig' in DOS to get your ip, then forward TCP port 9000-9013 to it and play. Other than that, youre screwed. -----signature----- (none)

Why would he go walking around to random locations in hopes of finding an open network. The "vast" majority are going to have a secure network.

	If its a common router, left with a default password, chances are nobody will ever know that someone tweaked the port forwarding section. I am unaware of any federal law that forbids accessing unsecured network devices. Now some cities will have laws like this, some even go so far to make it a penalty for not securing your device, but I am not sure on the federal level. -----signature----- (none)
