Answer #4
I’d recommend DD-WRT for more advanced control. (and more secure)
Answer #5
Usually its just a few settings:
1. Open any internet browser and type 192.168.1.1 and hit enter.
2. Search for a Wireless Settings tab.
3. Change the setting (usually WEP or non at all) to WPA2 Personal. 4. Put a 6 figure password that you know and set encryption to AES if possible.
5. Save changes.
