I have a D-link wireless router with 10 digits password set on the network.  I want to know if it is possible to see who is using the network at a given time.

Yes, login to the router.  There should be section that shows the IP addresses of connected computers.  Although, if I remember correctly this only works when using DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) which auto-assigns computers connecting to the network an IP address.

You canot go to and check cookies or history at every client PC. You have to setup you network as below:\nInternet -> DSL modem -> Hub or Switch -> Firewall PC (with ISP, or...) -> Client PCs\nSo that, every client PC connects to internet through the Firewall PC. And you can use logbook in ISP to find out which location people go

Do a "WhoIs" search on Networksolutions.com.  You can find if a particular domain name is being used or not

DSL usually uses Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE), which requires a username and password. Go to System Preferences, click Network, then Show: Built-in Ethernet, and click the PPPoE tab and verify your username and password. Also be sure that the Connect using PPPoE checkbox is checked!

very easy just install tcp/icmp packet sniffer, run this on your network and wait until someone logs in and make sure to have 0 internet activity while you wait.\n\nThe best way to capture passwords for your dsl modem is to run a packet sniffer and call your isp and complain of extremely slow speeds say 10 kbs download and capture the packets when they login.\n\nPresto you now have the login/password to your dsl modem.  Then you can login into it via the 169. ex ip and modify the settings in the firmware itself.\n\nI am not saying do this I am just saying that its possible to gather your password this way in case you " Forgot " it.

Set up a network key.  Type http://192.168.1.1 into IE and type in the router user name and password (usually admin for both).  Depending on what type of router you have, just go in and set up an easy to remember, yet difficult for others to guess, password.

No of course not. \n\nTry usin WEP Key from the router (build in)\nSet a password to it.\n\nSee if your router comes with a CD, install the software or...\n\ndefault configuration is... (type on address bar)\n\nhttp://192.168.1.100\n\nor\n\nhttp://192.168.1.1\n\nor \n\nhttp://192.168.0.1\n\nor\n\nhttp://192.168.0.100\n\n(depends on your router) please refer to your router manual. Router recommended -- AZTECH, LINKSYS

It means you have someone at a minimum using your wireless connection.  At the worst they are using your wireless to hack other sites and/or steal information about you for identity theft.\n\nWhat you need to do is secure your wireless network.  Take the following steps:\n1. Change the SSID of your wireless access point from the default.\n2. Change the default administrator password for your wireless device\n3. Enable the highest level encryption supported by your device.\n4. Enable MAC filtering from your wireless device

ignore ALL the people above\n\nlog in to your router (check the manual on how to do this)\n\nthen look for a option which shows you how many MAC numbers are logged into and using the router.\n\nFirst find out ur own MAC number by the following method:\nClick "Start", choose "Run...", type CMD and click OK, then type ipconfig /all in the Command Prompt window that appears. The number under physical address is the MAC address. If multiple IP are displayed, you should look under the label "Ethernet adapter x", where x is the name of your connection (which is Local Area Connection by default).\n\n----\n\nIf you see more than one MAC address that isnt urs then it means that someone else is using ur wireless service.\nYou can block others from accessing your router if you set your router to be a secure connection by using WEP. Again, check your router manual for this.\n\n\nHope this helps\n\nPS: MAC numbers are fixed. IP addresses can change every time you can log in to your router. This is the reason why i say that look for particular MAC numbers

Several possibilities:\n* You can stop the router from broadcasting the name of the network so that its existence won't be immediately obvious.\n* You can set a password for your router so that anyone who wants to connect will have to type in that password.\n* You can implement a MAC address filter so that only certain computers are allowed to connect. (A MAC address is a unique ID found in every network adapter. It will uniquely identify any computer.)\nAny or all of these can be used together or separately. Your router's documentation should explain how to do all these things.

Yes a good hacker can access your computer anytime your modem or router is on, If there is no physical connection than you are safe. But the hacker probably put backdoor programs on almost all key systems, and yes when you are online If he's anygood he can see everything you are typing through a rogue remote access program. Here's the kicker, you never know when he's accessing your system because he is using your own external ip to get in{piggybacking}

Put a password on it use the WEP option on your wireless configuration settings and set a password to your connection.\n\nIf you have D-LINK or netgear go to this site http://www.webhazard.com/html/how_to_set_wep.html and it will give you step by step directions.\n\nIf you have Linksys go to http://micro.uoregon.edu/homenetworking/linksys/ and it will give you directions on how to set it.\n\nIf you have neither, then just contact me and I can give you directions. I need to know what kind of router you have.

Hello,\n\nYou do not need any software to protect your router....\n\nhmmm.... let me rephrase that you SHOULD not need any software to put a password in your router.\n\ntry this. click on Start then RUN. If you have windows XP type CMD if you have WIn 98 type command. then in the DOS prompt type ipconfig /all\nthis will give you the IP address of your router "Default gateway" \n\nTake that information and enter it into you browser http://192.168.*.* a log in should appear since you say you have no protection the usual detault settings are admin(username) admin(password) or admin-password. once in the GUI look for security (sorry not familiar with that type of router) then you should be able to change the password to your liking.

Click start, then click on My Network Places.  Then on the left hand side clikc View My Network Connections. Then right click on the wireless icon.  Find your connection in the box that lists all the connections.  Double click on it and it should bring up a box.  On that screen should be the box for the network key and the confirm network key.

Nortornis to secure ur computer. But if u have wireless modem other wireless user will certainly be able to see ur network. So you will have set up for the wireless modem. Better call ur ISP tech support n ask them to enable security on the modem. U can email me at..nithujns@yahoo.co.in

Sounds more like you want to hack someone's home router... for fun let's say if it is your router you just hit the reset button on the back of it and use the default passcode... huh?
