How do i control my wireless network
-
Im having a 2wire router
Let say my router do not block anyone using my wireless network
And anyone within my radius can acess to internet
How do i make my comp the main one , so i can see whoever is using my network and block them from using it -
To use a blacklist, your list will grow very large, and it's impossible for routers to handle it.
It's better to use a whitelist.
Add only the PCs that you want to the router's configuration list. That will keep the list minimal and easier for you to handle if someone manages to use it without your permission. -

then probably you have to create static ip for all your PCs or laptops.Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:To use a blacklist, your list will grow very large, and it's impossible for routers to handle it.

Use MAC address if don't want to create static IP address.Originally posted by alwaysdisturbed:then probably you have to create static ip for all your PCs or laptops.
If you want to create static IP address, make sure you restrict the IP range as well.
Let's say there's only 2 computers.
The IP range will be from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.3. -
