| Disable SSID Broadcasting | |
| Lesson 2 showed you how to change the default SSID. That won't help secure you for very long if you broadcast your new SSID to any wireless device within range though. | |
| Enable Wireless Encryption | |
| Anyone within the range of your wireless devices and your wireless router or access point could potentially intercept your data as it flies through the airwaves. Encrypt your data to make sure nobody else can read it. | |
