Have you set the encryption level? Assigned MAC addresses?

    Uh, no, I don't think so. I live in rural Oregon, and don't expect anyone to be able to crack the PW. Einstein need not worry: Nobody around this town is threatening to oust him as smartest man ever. ;D

    But I will do that if this problem arises again. That and change the PW...

    Keep it in mind. It's amazing the technology they have on that for security!  :o

      I will keep it in mind, but I also will remember the following:

      The neighbors in question are about 50+ years of age (you may think a stern talk with near-seniors about bandwith is a sign I have no heart, but these guys are real jerks). Their kid is a 5th grader with the numeral equivalent of a B- average. What are the chances they can even figure out our 10-character PW, let alone know any software to help them do it? Not high, I imagine. :D
