Is your neighbor using your bandwith? Do other people have access to your wireless. The first step is to encrypt your signal... after that, hide it so they don't even know it's there.

  • doesn't hide it

    This only works while nothing is using your network, as soon as your laptop, media extender, WII, or what ever you have running on your router is using the router your ssid is broadcast to be picked up. The SSID is broadcast with every package sent to and from the router. Any user with access to the internet can download a utility to grab the SSID and access the network. and sniffers can see the network as long as your on it. Focus on encrypting the signal, much harder to crack.

    • passwords

      Once you reset the Router it will go back to the orginal username/password. I hope everyone changes the username/password as their first step to secure their network.
