Re: Hiding unsecured wireless networks

By the way, this problem may be more common than you think. My nephew, who is 3rd year university, has been running up the limit on my Brother-in-law's ISP account by downloading music and movies 24/7. Since B-in-L works out of a home office, this wasn't good. He tried restricting access, and now the 'kid' just logs onto his neighbor's wireless.

Be nice if manufacturers of consumer WAPs would amend their getting started wizards to included setting up security and encryption, instead of defaulting to nothing at all.
