Why not just secure it? Setup WEP, then setup a list to only allow your MAC addresses.
Even that is not secure. Use WPA.

Even WPA is not secure, use WPA2 Enterprise.

Even that isn't secure. Use a wired LAN with no outside internet connection FTW!!!!

WPA is secure enough for anyone around your hood 🙂

Even that isn't secure. Use a notebook and pencil to record your innermost thoughts and seal yourself in a ventilated safe with 10 years of food and 50' thick walls.

Door locks only keep out the honest people. Similarly, anyone who really wants to get in to your wireless network will. All you're doing is making it more difficult. It gets to a point where the effort you put in to make it more "secure" is not worth the number of people that you're blocking. Chances are, no one living around you even knows how to find your MAC address and clone it. Much less break WEP, WAP, WAP2, etc.

So THAT'S where Hoffa went!

Even THAT's not secure enough. End yourself, and no one can ever know anything about you or what you do.


Use the highest encryption settings that your router/hardware support, and forget about it.

If you have the right equipment, you can triangulate and track their emitter. For what the right equiptment costs, though, you could probably just get a couple of thugs to beat up everyone with a computer in range of your access point.
 
Get a gun and walk around your neighborhood looking for the culprit. If you see anyone with a PC or laptop that can connect wirelessly, end them with the gun and steal their computer. Power it down and check to see if your wireless connection is still getting hax0red. If so, repeat until you are the only user remaining on your secured wireless network.

I went this way a couple months ago when I saw some people stealing my bandwidth. Solved the problem right away.

That is not legal or ethical. There is no need to steal the computer, just power it off. :disgust:🙂

Even that is not secure, encrypt all traffic with a VPN! 😛
