What, do you mean to imply that Sharpie == gnarkill? I'm shocked, shocked by your suspicious nature!

Sharpie the question comes to mind why are you trying to hack your network with the N810 when a Lord Raiden put out more than enough network security measures to stop any further attempt on your network?

In any case, it boils down to this:
1) Set your wi-fi router to WPA2 and be done with it, the way it was suggested above.
2) Verify with your N810 that you have to set it to WPA2 and provide the passkey for actually logging in.
3) You're done. No need to set up any cracking tools, because unless something has changed dramatically lately then there's no known exploit for wpa2 with, for example, aes128, and thus there's no support for cracking it in the tools that have been mentioned. Those tools could only be used for cracking WEP, and why would you need that in order to check your own network? Hm?

Maybe his neighbor is one of those advanced penetration testers. Those who really tend to pwn your equipment.

Knowledge of network hacking, packet injection, and the like have it's legal uses.

To be a good Systems Administrator, one must be a good hacker . If you don't know what you're fighting, it's difficult to defend against it.

In any case.. at least the OP presented the question is such a way as to let whoever helps him remain conscience free . No matter how.. "phishy"... it may seem

Unless you set the passkey to "password1" or to your router's SSID or something. WPA2 with a strong password currently has no exploits.

And if you can't use WPA2 on your router due to problems with a computer on your network, upgrade the computer. There's a patch for Windows XP that you might need to install.

Of course, most security breaches exploit the users, not the computer systems. The neighbour shows up at your door wearing a blue shirt and an official-looking badge, and says he's from the ISP, and that your systems are having difficulty, and Grandma lets him sit down at your computer and install a keylogger or something...

Well, here's a fun way to stop your neighbor from ever getting onto your router ever again. Leave it open and connected to a honeypot (aka, a server designed to catch bad guys.) Let it capture all his pertinent information, and then display an official looking FBI warning that says, "You have illegally connected to this private, secure network. This is your one and only warning. Any further attempts to connect, and I'll turn you into the FBI. Yes, I know who you are, so stop stealing my internet!"

Guaranteed he'll connect once, see that message, wet himself, and then never touch it again. Also, you could set that up as the default webpage on the proxy so that no matter where he goes, unless he logs into the system and gets proper access to the internet through the router, that's all he'll get. I've done that to a couple guys before. They connected only once, and never ever connected again. hehe.

There's always creative transparent proxies too.
