Electronic devices with WiFi networking are now very popular, so almost every home will install a wireless router to facilitate access to these wireless devices. But the wireless router facilitates oneself, also facilitates some "bad people". A few days ago, a small series of a friend complained to me, said that his home broadband has been rubbed against the net, casual rub also forget, rub the net also crazy open Peer-to-peer software, all the bandwidth is occupied, the owner of their own can not access the Internet. He changed the password several times is invalid, rub the net quickly again to come in, he is almost driven crazy. Small knitting, for he designed a set of anti-RUB network program.

1, modify the SSID of the router, choose as many as possible a strange and complex name

2, turn off the SSID broadcast function, to prevent others through the signal broadcast search your wifi signal

3, set up a more complex WiFi password, it is recommended to use uppercase and lowercase letters and mathematical combination of more than 8 digits, and the use of WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK AES encryption method.

4, open the wireless network MAC address filtering function, commonly known as "Black and white table", this one is more important, small make up home WiFi password Unusually simple, rely on "black and white Watch" to resist the bad guys invade. So give us a detailed introduction. The way to do this is to collect the MAC addresses of the wireless devices in your home, add them to the router's filter list, and then set the wireless network MAC address filtering rule to: Disable the MAC address in the list beyond the rules in effect to access the wireless network, so that no wireless device in the "white table" can access your wireless network. You can sit back and relax and never use the bad guys to rub your nets anymore.

Note: What if you have a guest in your home and you need to use your wifi? Very simple, just temporary wireless network MAC address filtering function can be closed, the guests after leaving, the resumption of filtering on the line.
