Re: Hiding unsecured wireless networks

If they know what they are doing they can get around this, but you could set a static IP address, with your router and computers on a different subnet then the other Wireless networks, this will keep them from connecting without changing the IP address. This is easy to get around if you know what you are doing.

Also you could add a software firewall that has the ability to allow things based on time of day.
