Thread: queries after encrypting my wifi

hxxp://calcuttatelephones.com/dataoneinstall/mu05.html

i've just searched this forum and found this link and did 6th and 7th step.


now i have following question:

1. do i have to enter password everytime if i access net via wifi? or just one only.
as i've just tried with my ipodtouch and firsttime i had to enter password..
next time it didnt ask for password.

so just wanna confirm..will it still ask password to other users trying to access my wifi?

2. it asked to enter hexa decimal key. i wasnt able to enter my normal password.
so i entered simple 10digit password..
wht to do to enter my password?

3. any other thing i need to do to make it more secure? i just need basic security, so my neighbours or ppl passing arond my society wont be able to misuse my wifi.

Thanks.

You do not have to enter the wi-fi passphrase everytime. It will be stored on your PC or mobile device.
