Lock The Wireless (Wi-Fi) Router
It's important to secure your wireless internet and prevent people from
pirating off of it by locking the router with a personal password.
Here's how to do it.
Become your own IT person with the instructions in these Howcast videos,
which tell you how to check your internet speed, find an IP address,
use WAP, lock a wireless router, expand a wireless network, optimize
your web connection, choose an IP range, and more.
Step 1.
Open your web browser. Type in the URL address that is specified your
router's instruction manual. You should see a window pop up requesting a
username and password.
Step 2.
Use the username and password listed in your manual to sign in. The configuration page will appear.
Step 3.
Click on administration. At the top you'll see a place to type in a
password, and then a place to re-enter your password to confirm. Choose
your network's name, called your SSID. Enable Wi-Fi protected access
encryption, called WPA2 or WEP. Save your settings.
Step 4.
Most wireless routers come with an option to enable Media Access Control
-- or MAC address -- filtering, allowing you to specify that only
computers that have a particular MAC address are allowed access to the
wireless network. To enable this feature, refer to your router's manual.
