We are talking about wireless, right? Because in such a scenario,
logging the IP address won't make much of a difference since any IP
that the intruder has would be *one that your DHCP server leased to
him*. There is no ISP to involve here. Unless of course the intruder
accesses the FTP/POP3/whatever server from a different connection, in
which case he may very well be on someone *else's* WLAN and you'll end
up expending a great deal of effort and time (both yours and others')
and be no closer to knowing the identity of your malefactor than you
were before.
Yeah, I think hoping that the intruder would be daft enough to access
his Hotmail account is about the best you can hope for here.
