Secured Wireless Broadband ?

[prateek kumar]

Hello,

I have been using Airtel Wireless Broadband connection. How do i know if my connection is fully secure and that none can connect to my network ? I have heard and even seen people connecting to other people's wifi network. How do i secure my connection so that none could connect without my permission ?

You can secure your wifi network. But dont think that is applicable for wireless broadband.For that you will have to contact your isp.

Give us more details about the broadband connection. It seems you have a normal wired broadband from Airtel and using a wifi router at home to use the connection wireless-ly on your Phone / Laptop / Tablet etc.
Because AFAIK, Airtel does not have any wireless broadband (as in Wimax like Tikona).

In your case, ensure that your wifi access point is secured by a password, if it is not then any random person can connect to your wifi and use your internet. It should be there in your router settings.

be clearer in your requirement, you make us as confused as you are

specify what broadband technology you use and devices in your house, it helps us understand if you even have a valid question/concern.
