Posted:
in Current Mac Hardware edited January 2014
I recently purchased a wireless router and an Airport Extreme Card. It was easy to set up and install, however, my question to the forum is this. What type of security issues are involved with my new setup? How do I keep my data confidential and private? If you cant tell, I? m very new to this wireless internet business...



Thanks!

    99% of the routers feature a firewall that will protect any computer that is connected to it, or through it.



    that is I think, enough of a protection, but that's just me.

    For "wireless" security, make sure you enable WPA (using the PSK option) in your router, its the strongest security you can currently use..
