Wireless networking runs the risk of unwanted individuals gaining access to a network through your wireless router or access point. It is very important for a router to block all such incoming connections.

WEP and WPA are the most popular encryption techniques used to avoid any un au tho¬rised user to gain access to data. WPA is generally known as the more secure one of the two. Ensure that the router of your choice has WPA and WPA2 security capabilities.
