my neighbor has a wifi network and sometimes my compter will disconnect and try to connect to it but it cant. it somehow connected recently so i configerd his router to stop brodcasting its ssid . is this semi legal and will he noticeany problems

hmm he's the "proper" way of doing it, talk to your neighbour, but u've already passed that, but u can change the settings if u still have access to his router and get the settings back and then talk him/her to change the settings

or just live with it, i dunno what u've changed but if its something that'll require ppl to enter passwords to access to the internet or something they're more than likely to realize it, though i don't think they'd ever think that its a neigbhour who changed it

so afaik u're okay, i'm not sure if its ethical though

k thanks. i would talk to him but hes an ******. i only turned off brodcast ssid so i dont think he will even notice

How do you turn off the brodcast ssid?

It depends if the router offers the feature, most do on the router on on linksys routers you acess the router click the wireless tab the brodcast ssid option will be the bottem one one the Basic settings page i know it is also possible on dell routers but i cant remeber how
