2.7.6. Security Tips for Wireless Network
Here are some quick tips to help you improve the security level of your
wireless network:
Never use simple words (like school, apple and computer) as WEP encryption
or WPA passphrase.
A complicated (the combination of number, alphabet, even symbol, and long
enough) WEP key and WPA passphrase is much safer than simple and short
ones. Remember that the wireless client is capable to keep the key or
passphrase for you, so you only have to input the complicated key or
passphrase once. It’s not too trouble but will greatly improve security level.
You can hide the ESSID of this router by set ‘Broadcast ESSID’ option to
‘Disable’. Your wireless router will not be found by other people in proximity if
they’re just using the AP scanning function of their wireless client, and this can
reduce the chance of being intruded.
Use ‘Access Control’ function described in section 2.7.4., so those people who
are not in your list will not be able to connect to your network.
