hi all. ok first of all let me say i am very new to wireless networking. I have just bought a D-Link DI-624 wireless router. basically my setup is like this;
1 x PC connected through network cable to D-Link DI-624 wireless router.
1 x laptop connected by d-link USB dongle.
1 x PC connected by d-link USB dongle.
Ok so i've got it all setup and every system can get online fine (It was easy....in fact a little tooo easy...read on please...). But the problem i have is I obviously don't want others to be able to connect to my network and use my internet connection or worse! It seems to me, all it needs is someone outside my flat with a laptop and they could be surfing using my broadband connection.
OK now my question is, HOW do I secure this? I've looked at the manual that came with the router, but there is Nothing at all that helps me. Basically what I'd like it to do is perhaps allow me to add what IP's I want to use the network...does that make sense? Is there any advise that you can give me on this router to keep things secure or at least stop others using my internet connection/network?
