Can I find other users on my router?

[carlosthegreat]

OK, this is gonna sound like I'm a big paranoid freak but......

I'm pretty sure the guy upstairs is using my router. I wrote the key down and it disappeared. Then it came back. Now he never goes to the library and is always on his laptop! I'm more or less 99% he's using it! And not paying me!  

So yeah, I just wondered if I could find out he was using it?

Anyone wannw play Watson to my Holmes? Thanks!

What kind of wireless security do you have? If none, the answer is probably yes.

You can change the broadcast channel, not broadcast the ID, use WPA or WEP, etc. so let us know the current status.

I guess asking him is out of the question, but usually if you reason enbough to have a good suspicion you are right.

I'm not entirely sure about the security but I'm almost certain it's WEP.

Basically my friend has the computer with the router and i share it (and th bills).

I just have a feeling he's in on it. I want to change it with the least fuss possible.

OK I think I found out how to check.

Now I just need to know if the wired computer will show in the DHCP client list?

Thanks.............

You should be able to look in the router settings & see who's connected.

I use this little program to see who's on the line...
