Linksys WAP54G Secure Configuration

[Igor]

Below are some basic steps to secure a wireless access point (WAP). The screenshots are for Linksys WAP54G v. 3.04, however, the same steps will apply to wireless access points from other manufacturers. Understand this: following the “Easy Installation Guide” that came with your wireless access point or router will not ensure security of your network. The purpose of the these quick configuration guides is to get your wireless network up and running with as little effort as possible.

The manufacturer of your wireless network hardware is not responsible for the security of your network – you are. By not reading documentation and by not fully understanding what you are doing, you are creating potentially serious problems for yourself and your family. By not properly securing your wireless network you are violating the service agreement with your ISP and, depending on the state of your residence, you may even be breaking your state law.
