I just set up a little wlan at my parents home, and has encountered a little problem...
There should be 3 clients connected (2 through lan, one through wlan), but there are 4 clients connected...
I'm using a Belkin Wireless Cable/DSL Gateway Router.
I've set it up to use MAC filtering, so if you're not on the list, you shouldn't be able to connect nor associate with the router... But the unknown client is still there....
I've yet to set up encryption, due to the fact that MS won't allow me to use a passphrase, but needs the HEX keys instead... (And I haven't had time to create 20 different keys, and set it up on the diff. computers...)
And besides, there seems to be a quite big security hole in the encryption when using 802.11b anyways...
But shouldn't MAC filtering save me from having unauthorized clients on the network?
Anyone have any idea on how I can get rid of that user...
(And make sure he doesn't come back?)
