Security
Tips
for
a
Wireless
Network
Here
are
some
quick
tips
to
help
you
improve
the
security
level
of
your
wireless
network:
1.
Never
use
simple
words
(like
school,
apple
or
computer)
as
the
WEP
encryption
or
WPA
passphrase.
2.
A
complicated
(combination
of
numbers,
letters,
even
symbols,
and
long
enough)
WEP
key
and
WPA
passphrase
is
much
safer
than
simple
and
short
ones.
Remember
that
the
wireless
client
is
capable
of
keeping
the
key
or
passphrase
for
you,
so
you
only
have
to
input
the
complicated
key
or
passphrase
once.
It’s
not
too
troublesome
but
will
greatly
improve
the
security
level.
3.
You
can
hide
the
ESSID
of
this
router
by
setting
the
‘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.
4.
Use
the
‘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.
