So I have a network set up in my apartmen with a Netgear WGT624 connecting two boxes and a laptop, one by cat 5 cable, the other box and laptop via 802.11g connection (WEP, 128-bit). This guy in my building found my network id through his computer, and wants to pay me each month to share my internet access.
I'm perfectly fine with sharing the bandwidth, as I'm hardly home and I don't really use all the bandwidth. But I'm concerned about network security. Other than password-protecting my computers and not sharing the contents, how do I increase security on my systems to protect them from other computers inside my network? Are there any other bad things he could do with access to my WAP?
Thanks all.
