Just had my O2 BB activated. Everthing is connected up fine. Now within the configuration settings of the Router I have changed the Wireless encryption to WPA2 and changed the WEP key.

Is there anything else I need to look at changing? Just want to be as secure as possible.

Thanks.
 
Change the password for the SuperUser account, and maybe the administrator as well. The SuperUser one is more important, since everyone knows the default password for it (O2Br0ad64nd).
 
SuperUser password might be set to the serial number of the box now rather than the default O2Br0ad64nd.
 
SuperUser account password should now by default be the serial number of your router, as long as O2 have updated your routers setting's. O2 found a security loophole a couple of month's ago with the routers and they have remotely updated people's routers with new router login passwords.

Thanks for your advice. I have changed the password now under the Administrator settings and change password. Cheers.
