2-8-6 Security Tips for 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 and computer) as WEP encryption or
WPA passphrase.
2.
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
tedious and will greatly improve security level.
3.
You can hide the ESSID of this router by setting ‘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 ‘Access Control’ function described in
, so those MAC
addresses which are not in your list will not be able to connect to your network.
