Re: (OT) Building a network
whats the differance between WAN and LAN?
I found out today that my nieghbor might be using the wireless features of my Actiontec wireless DSL router. Any suggestions for me?
I was talking to him and the subject of internet connections came up. He told me that since June he has had internet for free. I asked him what he meant, and he said, and I quote: "All of a sudden one day I click on the E thing and it connected."
Wow? Was my response. Can I see your Lap Top?
Its one of those DELL lap tops that his wife gave him after she bought a new one. It is set up for wireless use. 
Since they live close enough, he gets a pretty decent connection. I FEAR, that it is either my ISP or the neighbor on the other side of him that he has locked onto.
What do I or should I do?

WAN means Wide Area Network. LAN means Local Area Network. WAN is the network connection to the internet. LAN is the network connection between computers in the same place.

Turn on all of your computers that use a wireless network device, and connect them to the network. Then, go into the router configuration. Usually typing 192.128.0.1 into a web browser window of a computer connected to the network will access it. Access it from a computer using a wired ethernet connection if possible. Find the Wireless Access List settings. Add the MAC address of each connected device that you want connected to the access list. They should be listed by computer name. You can check each of your computers on the wireless network to see what the MAC address of their wireless network device is, to make sure you have the correct devices. Then, enable "Access Control", which cuts off any wireless network device that is not on the access list. I am not sure what it is called in other routers, just that it is called "Access Control" in my Netgear router.
Next, enable WEP and put in a password. This will make it so you need a password to connect to the wireless network. You will need to alter the connection settings for each of your computers on the wireless network to use this password.
Feel free to log on to MSN or IRC if you need further help... |
