Hi Paolo The most secure option is to switch it off :) But anyway.. you can make your wifi AP more secure in 5 minutes. 1. change the default login username and password. thats probably the most important thing to do. 2. switch on a WPA2 encryption. do NOT use WEP. 3. change the default SSID Then you have some optional possibilities like MAC address filtering or switching off the SSID broadcasting. But both the methods are easy to bypass. Mike On Thu, Nov 13, 2008 at 10:30 PM, <streetshare () gmail com> wrote:
