The world is so advanced and fast the people can't afford to have any kind of time lag in communication. In this run wireless networks(Wi-Fi,Bluetooth,infrared etc.) play an essential role. In this article we the 'tech-da-hack' team is sharing way to secure your wi-fi using WEP.
A wireless network helps a home network to be more volatile. In a wireless network one dosent have to have to look for the ethernet cables ,instead he/she can access the internet or the systems in homenetwork using a wireless adaptor. We have to secure our network from the mallicious or unauthorized users.
In order to make our network secured we have to setup our router's WEP(Wireless Equivalence Privacy) settings.
In order to setup the router first we need a connection with it.
Once you are connected to the router:
* Open your browser and in address bar type the address of your routers access page.Some of the commen routers and their address are:
-> BSNL - 192.168.1.1
-> NETGEAR - 192.168.0.1
-> Airtel - 192.168.1.1
*enter the username and password.Some of the common username and passwords are:
Netgear
username-admin
password-password / 1234
Airtel
username -user
password-password
BSNL
username-admin
password-admin
*Now, look for a tab named "security" on the main router page. In the security select "WEP" as your security type ans choose a password for your network.
* Click on "apply changes" and sing out.
caution: Dont select the "restore factory default settings"
* You may need to reboot your computer in order to apply the settings.
* Now, whener anyone tries to connect to your router the router will ask for the password.
