"Are you having fun yet?"
You just purchased a wireless
router and wireless network adapter and you are reading
through the instruction guide which states, "Change the
default SSID and disable SSID broadcasts". At that point you
might be asking yourself what is a SSID and why do I care
about securing it. What happens if I don't secure the SSID?
From Frustration to Success...
Setting
up a secure wireless network for home or for a small office
doesn't have to be difficult. In fact it can be quite a
pleasant experience with the satisfaction that you get from
roaming freely around your house with a laptop computer and a
wireless connection. You are able to check your
email and surf the Internet from any room, even the bathroom
if you want. I am sure that you have heard the promises of
wireless networks before.

Most people just don't have
time or the interest to read through technical instructions on
how to create a wireless network. It would be much easier if
someone could just show me how to do this. We hear your pain
and we are here to help! We've created a computer based
wireless networking tutorial video
that was developed with this in mind. Our industry known
expert instructor clearly
explains in an easy going manner the concepts of wireless
networks, wireless standards, and wireless security options.
He then guides you through the process of configuring a
wireless network adapter and a wireless access point/router
and provides tips and tricks for troubleshooting wireless
network settings. You just insert the CD-ROM into your
computer and sit back and watch the wireless networking
tutorial and learn how to setup your own network in no time.
But I already setup my
wireless network...
Even if you've successfully
created a wireless network for your home are you sure that it
is secure? The fact is that
the majority of all wireless
networking equipment is set by default to allow anyone with a
wireless network adapter in their computer access to your
wireless network!
If you not sure if your
network is secure then as a minimum an insecure wireless
network might allow your neighbors to share your Internet
connection and get free access and potentially slow your
Internet connection down. In the worst case scenario a hacker
could intercept the email that you send and other important
information such as
social security numbers,
credit card numbers, passwords.
