3-6-6 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 for your password, such as “password” or “1234567890”.
2. A complicated (combination of numbers, alphabets, and even symbols) WEP key and
WPA passphrase is more secure than simple and short words. 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. Once you have chosen a password,
write it down and keep it in a secure place.
3.
You can hide the ESSID of this access point by setting the ‘Broadcast ESSID’ option
to ‘Disable’. Your wireless access point will not be found by other people in
proximity if they are using the Access Point scanning function of their wireless client,
and this can reduce unauthorized access.
4.
Use ‘Access Control’ function, described in section 3-4-4, to allow authorized users
access to the wireless access point using their specific MAC address.
