Dear Jeff,

Look in the arp table of you router. (howto, see manual)
the x.x.x.1 is the router itselves.
and via IP config (in cmd box) on your computer you van see which Ip numer
you got.

If your machine is the only one connected, and there are more than 2 IP
numbers in the arp table (also after 5 minutes) these are the not wanted
ones....

greetings Marcel Pe1nms

Does anyone know how you would be able to tell if someone else was using
your wireless network like a neighbor?


Http into your router (default is usually 192.168.0.1 -check your manual).
turn off your machines. There will be some function that will show you what
is connected.

That answers the immediate question but the larger one is that the router
should be set up so that all but the most determined hackers can't get in.
Check your manual...

Use high security, put in your machines' MAC addresses so the router will
only allow them to connect. Use a different channel and a long,secure pw.

Ask any questions.
