OT: Securing Wireless Connection

[Azselendor]

Also, if you are using a big-box brand router (like linksyss, netear or dlink), you'll need to change your network name. Both linksys, netear and dlink encryption has been cracked and by default they will setup networks with names identifying what kind of router they are. example: linksys_OW_28102 or some other bs.

Turn on your SSID broadcast for this.

Then change your wireless network ID so something benign like "NASY" or like what I did, "RCPlane_5" so if someone finds it, they may dismiss it for something else.

then redetect your network connections, enter your WPA key, and disable SSID at the very end.



Also, if your router allows it, try to reduce the transmitter power so that it's only effective in your immediate area.
