    You're going to have to elaborate.  "lock my Internet" is too brief for us to know what you want.

      Drive up to my house and try to go on line and about 4 different wifis come up but mine is the only one with no little pad lock next to it. Anyone could get online using my wifi. I thought I set it up but I must have done something wrong.

      Apparently, you have not enabled WPA encryption.  A reference: http://netsecurity.about.com/od/quicktip1/qt/qtwifiwepwpa.htm

        You can use a set of login information for the WiFi and use internet without any problem, no one can access internet without the login information.
