Due to problems with my old router (mainly, it will only let my old computer connect, and I still need to switch it to an open NAT for XBL but don't want to bother with it), I've decided that it's time for me to switch to a new wireless router. I don't know what I'll get yet (though if anyone knows a router that works well with XBL that info would also be appreciated)...

... but it's not why we're here today. Historically speaking, I have always named my routers after robots/computers. Sentient robots/computers that is. My first router was GlaDOS (of Portal fame), my current router is R. Dorothy Wainright (Big O). I'd like to continue this tradition with my next router, but I'm not sure what robot I want to name it after. I was thinking of naming it Pino (Ergo Proxy), but I don't know that I've got my heart set on it, and I thought I might turn to you, good people of the Escapist, for suggestions.

What robot should I name my router after?

You should name your router after the password required to acess it

Wadsworth? (Robot Butler, Fallout 3)

Bender?

Carn't think of anything better. Maybe you should just call it GlaDOS again?

Actually, with R Dorothy the password was Wainright (Dorothy's last name) so that wasn't exactly what you suggested, but close enough. I actually really liked having it like that, because it was easy to remember the password. Unfortunately, there wasn't any need to remember it... my old computer connected to it automatically, and like I said, it won't let any other computers connect to it wirelessly for some reason.

Beaten to it. So yes, Skynet, GLaDOS, SHODAN. One of those.

Edit: Oh, you already had GLaDOS. Skynet or SHODAN then.
