Protecting Our Wireless Network
 
We have a wireless network set up with our router, though we don't use the wireless signal (even with the DS and PSP around). Thing is, somebody else is; some computer titles "Emily" is on our network. How do we lock her, and any other comp we don't want sharing our internet, from the network? Is there a way to turn off the signal so we can use the cables (as in a normal router)?

You should be able to go into your routers webpage and lock each PC down by MAC address.

There should be a way to turn off wireless in the webpage config through the router's IP address. My router's IP is 192.168.1.1, but it varies by manufacturer.

Though if you want to stop people from using it but still be able to use it, turn on at least WPA (WPA2 would be better) security and MAC address filtering. You can use WEP, it's easily cracked, though it's the only way you can use a DS online. WEP would at least keep casual surfers out though.

Fuck that Emily. Who the hell does she think she is?

Tha fuck...

Its asking me for a password to get on the page when I never set such a password initially.

Vietnamese Crippler 07-16-2008 02:58 PM

The default password should be password

And for some routers, the username is admin
