    How to Secure Your Wireless Network

    http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,130330/article.html

    Almost all of us have jumped onto someone else's unsecured Wi-Fi network. There's little harm in that if you're just an honest soul looking for an Internet connection.

    But if you're the owner of an unsecured network, you should be aware that the world's not made up entirely of honest souls--and it's not hard for the dishonest ones to see exactly what you're doing on your network.

    Good advice.
    I was a little surprised they didn't suggest not broadcasting your SSID...maybe even doing MAC filtering.

    I poked around on mine for a few minutes to discover I was already using WPA-PSK wireless security. Just for additional security, I gave my router a new name and password.

    Help your good honest neighbors out and give em the key. They will probably split the wireless bill with you.
    So, Kid, you think you got what it takes to be a Punch King?
