Wireless Network

[shadygirl420]

I have a wireless router, pretty much so I could get online with my psp. Is there any way that I could password protect the connection to make sure no one is stealing a signal?

Yes, encrypt your network with WEP, or even better WPA.

I use WEP and have never had a problem, its easy to set up and you will find the details in your router when you access, just look up Encryption and then select the help menu that it has built in it.

wpa is more secure, but i dont really use it just because of that. i just find its better to make your own password. wep is rather limited sometimes

how do i make my own password for it?

if you dont know your default gateway to to start>run>and type "cmd" then in cmd type "ipconfig". note your default gateway (mines 192.168.1.254 for example). type that into internet explorer or firefox or w/e. then enter the router username and password. by default its admin, and admin, or something stupid. then when your in just find the security, or wireless settings or w/e its under on your router
