Hidden settings in a wireless network environment

Wireless networks are becoming more and more technical, so what are the general settings for our familiar network environment?

Here is a detailed introduction to you. The technology of wireless network is becoming more and more mature, then how do we set up the wireless network hiding setting when we use the wireless network? Here is a detailed description for us.

Wireless signal a search that is, wireless network in a row, which is the root of many security risks, there is no certain protection measures, wireless network is like no shelter in the street naked, so in the wireless network hidden computer and wireless router is very important. To dive deep, watch the wireless network hide the ultimate *.

Hide a computer in a wireless network

There are a number of ways to hide your computer in a wireless network, such as clicking Start/Run, then entering CMD to open a command prompt window, entering "net config Server/hidden:yes" in that window, or, in the Properties window of the wireless network connection, canceling the File and Printer sharing on a Microsoft network "so that others cannot find their computers through their online neighbors.

To prevent a computer's IP address from leaking, you can start the firewall feature of the wireless network connection, and set ICMP in the Advanced tab of the firewall properties, and prohibit all incoming and outgoing requests, so that others cannot use Ping.exe to determine if their computer is online.

WinXP the wireless network is automatically managed by default, it is only necessary to have the system connect to the wireless network automatically when you need to access the wireless network resources, so you can cancel the "Configure my wireless network settings with Windows" option in peacetime, which is not only safe, but also saves resources.

Or click on the "Advanced" button to cancel "Automatically connect to a non-preferred network" so that the system will not easily connect to a previously not detected wireless network.

Make wireless routers invisible but accessible

The most direct way to hide a wireless router in the air is to have it stop the SSID broadcast, SSID broadcast features wireless networks created by wireless routers that allow clients to search, which facilitates access to the wireless network, but also facilitates illegal access, so in situations where security is needed, such as a corporate network, It's best to forbid it.

As a result, using a WinXP or wireless card with a program is not as usual to search for the wireless network created by the wireless router, and to access it you can only manually add a preferred network and specify the SSID name.

Hiding the SSID broadcast but not dealing with netstumber, it can detect a hidden wireless network, so you have to take advantage of some of the features of the wireless router itself, including stopping the DHCP service and modifying the default IP address of the LAN port. Because the SSID of the wireless network is broadcast outward, even if the wireless network is detected, if the intruder does not acquire or configure the IP address of the same network segment as the wireless router, or cannot connect to the wireless router, this is also a prerequisite for TCP/IP network communication. That is, the IP address of the device must be on the same network segment
