Rep:

I think the deal was some brands of routers.





As for wifi, a person could access it eventually. Seems you need some 2 million packets or so to crack it. A changing password would protect that if used.



Other options,



Limit wifi to only times when you need it. I use my router to set times when I am there. You can also turn it off to save energy.



Reduce power output. You'd be surprised how far your signal can travel. Few people however can change power settings.



Change default logon password and maybe user.



Don't enable any services or access to wan.



The wacky comments should not be used towards new members and maybe not at all.
