How to secure my wireless network?

[ANISSA]

I have a DSL internet connection and a wireless router to share the connection with my laptop. How to secure my connection so that my neighbors can not use my connection?

Thanks

In the configuration of your Wi-Fi router, you must have a table of MAC address filtering. You come back in this table, the MAC address of the Wi Fi laptop, so your mobile will only access the wireless network.

The MAC address is the physical address of ethernet interface card (with Wi Fi in your case) for it, you go into a DOS window (command prompt) and the portable tapes:

ipconfig / all

MAC address is of the form: 00-4F-56-0A-3B-36

[MACY]

Protocols to allow you must save at least:

HTTP, FTP, HTTPS, FTPS

Otherwise you can not navigate properly. Source MAC address is your PC.
Destination MAC address is the modem. To find the MAC address of your PC:
Start run type cmd Type Ok.
You type ipconfig / all in the console.

Looking for your network card and you look at 'mac address' or' hardware address (in the form xx: xx: xx: xx or xx-xx-xx-xx-xx)

Securing your network means that you will close your apartment key with the appropriate locks on the door. So most of you have locks, plus you need a key, therefore greater security.

Enable MAC filter, and if you can, put a key or WPA and WEP. with 2 security, you already have what complicated the lives of your future impostors.
