Is the access to your router (if you have one) open or secured (MAC filtration or encryption)?

Bruce Schneier gave some good explanation on why you should leave your network open.

There is a lively discussion about this in the comments of the Lifehacker.com post about this artcle.

Closed. (wpa and mac filtering)

When you let your wlan open here in germany, and someone does somethig illegal, its partly your fault.

I don't want to pay for others illegal activities.


But I use Open Wlans. It's fully legal here

open, but I live so far out in the hills, that unless the cows get ITs and start to check Cowapedia, I don't have much to worry about.

Hehe, nice. That's where it's at....

Hey, if it's free open wifi, why not?

ssam | # 10 | 2008-01-12, 16:30 | Report

partly open. anyone can use port 80.

some noob using it was sending spam (i imagine due to a windows virus). so i had to close the email ports.
