If You want to Secure Your Network then You have to take Some Step for it.


- Get a broadband connection via your ISP, with a router
- Connect to your router by typing your IP address into the browser window.
- Enable encryption and set a password.

Never Right the Security Code or key On the Computer.

The firewall built into your router prevents hackers on the Internet from getting access to your PC. But it does nothing to stop people in range of your Wi-Fi signal from getting onto your network--and with the latest high-performance equipment, your Wi-Fi signal could reach clear down the block. Without encryption and other protective measures, anyone can use readily available tools to see all your Wi-Fi traffic.

For extra protection, you should run software firewalls on the individual PCs on your network. Some good options are Zone Labs' ZoneAlarm.

Cheers,

lulz you posted in 2010 and you just suggested people to use a wep password/key instead of a wpa2 or a wpa key
also hidding an ssid only helps until one of your computers/phones probes the router
these are not good suggestions
don't listen to the guy above
