Because we do not use a router, to protect
network from outside intruders, we must inevitably
advantage in front of the eye. What steps
can you do? Follow the guidance.
• Disabling fi le sharing: one road that is used
by network intruders is through a fi le sharing facilities.
When the intruder had managed to enter, he could with
cation easily modify the contents of your computer. Thus
fi le's how to disable sharing. In the Local Area
Connection Properties on the General tab, delete
check File and Printer Sharing For Microsoft
Networks.
So what's the point made the network, if you can not do
fi le sharing. This is indeed a dilemma. But still there are options
you can do. First is the move
all the fi le that is shared to a computer that is not connected
directly to the Internet, then do fi le sharing of computer
them. The second is to move the modem to your computer
are not used to doing fi le sharing.
• Install fi rewall: as we said earlier, without a router,
rewall fi networks rely on software-based.
Therefore, you should install fi rewall in
host computer. A firewall is placed on the host computer
to protect the local network from intruders, and also
can restrict user rights on the local network. So every
messages that enter and exit through the fi rewall will be selected
in accordance with applicable security criteria. Firewall
can be implemented as software and hardware or
even a combination of both.
Lots of free rewall fi that you can download.
For example Sygate Personal Firewall, Ashampoo Firewall,
Outpost Firewall, and many others.
• Install the latest service pack: Service Pack is basically
a collection of various patches that patch the various gaps or
Windows bugs within a certain period of time. Therefore
that, if Microsoft had launched its latest service packs
for Windows, install it immediately.
• Turn off when not in use: but can save electricity,
turn off the wireless network card is not used
also can protect us from intruders. Because the network
ad-hoc, we can not hide the SSID. Wireless
network card will continue to emit the signal. When
This signal is captured by the intruder and he was interested in
to break, has been finished.
• Last is the method that issued the fees, aka
buy a router. If you want to feel safe in
in the network itself, it would not hurt you
buy a wireless router. The price is also something
affordable, ranging from 200 thousands to millions.
