"Wireless Network Compromised"?

I keep getting the following dialog every now and then:







Does anyone know what this means? I connect to a G-only wireless router with WPA protection. I'm on Tiger.



If anyone could point me to a KB article that discusses what precisely this error means, I would be very grateful.

    Can't say I've ever seen that... have you tried asking on Apple's forums?

    That dialog is new to me as well. Its somewhat ambiguous as well, as it is not clear what/how its monitoring and what in particular set off the alarm.

    I was reading aout WPA this morning - if a WPA network detects an attempt to "break into" it, it will shut down for one minute. Someone is trying to connect to your network!

    i also havnt seen that dialog... ive seen; "outside of network" and it would still connect me.. but not that sort of stuff... i would suggest asking the guys at genious bar at the apple store/asking the guys that work at apple stores... they can prolly help you.



    good luck
