    Chapter 2 Wireless Security Checklist

    2Compact Wireless-G USB Network Adapter with SpeedBooster

    Chapter 2:Wireless Security Checklist

    Wireless networks are convenient and easy to install, sohomes with high-speed Internet access are adopting them

    at a rapid pace. Because wireless networking operates bysending inormation over radio waves, it can be morevulnerable to intruders than a traditional wired network.Like signals rom your cellular or cordless phones, signalsrom your wireless network can also be intercepted. Sinceyou cannot physically prevent someone rom connectingto your wireless network, you need to take some additionalsteps to keep your network secure.

    1. Change the default wirelessnetwork name or SSID

    Wireless devices have a deault wireless network nameor Service Set Identiier (SSID) set by the actory. Thisis the name o your wireless network, and can be upto 32 characters in length. Linksys wireless productsuse linksys as the deault wireless network name. Youshould change the wireless network name to somethingunique to distinguish your wireless network rom otherwireless networks that may exist around you, but do notuse personal inormation (such as your Social Securitynumber) because this inormation may be available oranyone to see when browsing or wireless networks.

    2. Change the default password

    For wireless products such as access points and routers,you will be asked or a password when you want to changetheir settings. These devices have a deault password setby the actory. The Linksys deault password is admin.Hackers know these deaults and may try to use themto access your wireless device and change your networksettings. To thwart any unauthorized changes, customizethe devices password so it will be hard to guess.

    3. Enable MAC address filtering

    Linksys routers give you the ability to enable Media AccessControl (MAC) address iltering. The MAC address is aunique series o numbers and letters assigned to everynetworking device. With MAC address iltering enabled,wireless network access is provided solely or wirelessdevices with speciic MAC addresses. For example, you canspeciy the MAC address o each computer in your homeso that only those computers can access your wirelessnetwork.

    4. Enable encryption

    Encryption protects data transmitted over a wirelessnetwork. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) and WiredEquivalency Privacy (WEP) oer dierent levels o security

    or wireless communication.A network encrypted with WPA/WPA2 is more securethan a network encrypted with WEP, because WPA/WPA2uses dynamic key encryption. To protect the inormationas it passes over the airwaves, you should enable thehighest level o encryption supported by your networkequipment.

    WEP is an older encryption standard and may be theonly option available on some older devices that do notsupport WPA.

    General Network Security GuidelinesWireless network security is useless i the underlyingnetwork is not secure.

    Password protect all computers on the network andindividually password protect sensitive iles.

    Change passwords on a regular basis.

    Install anti-virus sotware and personal irewallsotware.

    Disable ile sharing (peer-to-peer). Some applicationsmay open ile sharing without your consent and/or

    knowledge.

    Additional Security Tips

    Keep wireless routers, access points, or gateways awayrom exterior walls and windows.

    Turn wireless routers, access points, or gatewayso when they are not being used (at night, duringvacations).

    Use strong passphrases that are at least eight charactersin length. Combine letters and numbers to avoid usingstandard words that can be ound in the dictionary.

    reedom to share and change ree sotwareto make surethe sotware is ree or all its users. This General PublicLicense applies to most o the Free Sotware Foundationssotware and to any other program whose authorscommit to using it. (Some other Free Sotware Foundationsotware is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public

    License instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.When we speak o ree sotware, we are reerring toreedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses aredesigned to make sure that you have the reedom todistribute copies o ree sotware (and charge or thisservice i you wish), that you receive source code or canget it i you want it, that you can change the sotware oruse pieces o it in new ree programs; and that you knowyou can do these things.

    To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions thatorbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you tosurrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain

    responsibilities or you i you distribute copies o thesotware, or i you modiy it.

    For example, i you distribute copies o such a program,whether gratis or or a ee, you must give the recipientsall the rights that you have. You must make sure that they,too, receive or can get the source code. And you mustshow them these terms so they know their rights.

    We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright thesotware, and (2) oer you this license which gives youlegal permission to copy, distribute and/or modiy thesotware.

    Also, or each authors protection and ours, we want tomake certain that everyone understands that there is nowarranty or this ree sotware. I the sotware is modiiedby someone else and passed on, we want its recipientsto know that what they have is not the original, so thatany problems introduced by others will not relect on theoriginal authors reputations.

    Finally, any ree program is threatened constantly bysotware patents. We wish to avoid the danger thatredistributors o a ree program will individually obtainpatent licenses, in eect making the program proprietary.To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent mustbe licensed or everyones ree use or not licensed at all.

    The precise terms and conditions or copying, distributionand modiication ollow.

    TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND

    I the modiied program normally reads commandsc.interactively when run, you must cause it, whenstarted running or such interactive use in the mostordinary way, to print or display an announcementincluding an appropriate copyright notice anda notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying

    that you provide a warranty) and that users mayredistribute the program under these conditions,and telling the user how to view a copy othis License.
