# that's what we did
Seems fairly secure

although a techy mate has a device for reading wireless networks and reckoned he could have us cracked in a couple of hours.
If there's anyone out there with the time and knowledge, most wireless networks can be cracked, but ours is secure to the casual user

# Mine's wide open at home
I've got all my flatmates on a wireless network through my broadband, and i haven't a fucking clue how to secure it.

# hmm yes
I think it's something to do with passwording - but you'll really need to sort it out!

# Apparently my router should be giving me the option
But i have a seperate wireless transmitter plugged into the router. i can't access it on the network to access any of the security stuffs. I really should get it sorted!

# Find out what the "Gateway IP" is
from the machines connecting wirelessly. That's the address you need to point your browser at to configure your wireless access point. Probably.
