How do I know if someone is connected to my wireless router for internet?

Easiest was is to look at the security log for signins from your router. Am assuming you already know how to log into your router. OH, and to stop it, if you have not already done so, set a security password,  AND enable wps-2 security. That SOULD stop any future unauthorized access in the future. If you don't already know how to do that, your routers instruction manual; should tell you how to do that.

I don't know the command, personally, but there is also a command signal you can send, which identifies the ssid even it it's turned off, so JUST disabling the broadcast is pretty easily bypassed.Your best bet, if it's available, is to use type n, instead of type g protocol, activate the enhanced security, and make sure to set a password. Good luck.

  • Cisco Model 870 router for home office connected to WRT160NL wireless router for personal use

    I am using a Cisco Model 870 router for home office. I just bought a WRT160NL wireless router for home use. I setup the personal wireless router off the personal port of the 870 and can connect with my PC but not with my MAC machines. It can see the Network but when it asks me for passwords, it says they are wrong, which after several attempts I know they are correct.
    The new router is setup as WPA2 personal. Can you advise?

    I think I answered my own question. I tried downloading something on my desktop and checked my cellular usage afterwards didn't go up so it's using my home internet and not my data plan.

  • How can I know which clients are connected to my network through express and which are connected through extreme?

    I have an airport express extending, through wireless, a network provided by an airport extreme. How can I know which clients are connected to my network through express and which are connected through extreme?
    Here you can see both routers:
    I would expect to some clients connected to the express, other than the extreme. And that's all I see: only the airport extreme appears as client of the airport express.
    Below, one can see the summary of the config for both routers.
    Would somebody explain it?
    Thanks,

  • I just purchased an Apple TV.  I have a pc running windows 7.  It is connected to a router and the router is connected to a wireless router.  I connect my iPhone, iPad and apple tv to wireless network but do not know how to put the pc on the wifi network

    I just purchased an Apple TV.  I have a pc running windows 7.  It is connected to a router and the router is connected to a wireless router.  I connect my iPhone, iPad and apple tv to wireless network but do not know how to put the pc on the wifi network so the Apple TV can do home share.

    I don't mean to be facetious but sometimes the simplest things are overlooked.  To connect to your library you have to have the computer where the iTunes library is located running and with iTunes open.  It also needs to be on the same network.  My network is dual band and works with either stream but a friend of mine does not.  He has to set the computer and the Apple TV to the same band.  Hope this helps.

  • How do I know if someone has submitted a form?

    How do I know if someone has submited a form, Do I get e-mailed?

    Hi;
    You can get emailed if you have a "Paid" level account, there is an "Email Notifications" feature that you enable on the "Options" tab for email notifications.  If you are using a Free account there is no notification and you would have to sign into your FormsCentral account to see when there are new responses, the existing/new response count is shown for each form on the My Forms tab as well as of course in the "View Responses" tab of the form.
    Thanks,

  • How can I know when someone buys a copy of my single?

    How do I know when someone buys a copy of my single?

    Thanks try67.  Consider this:  I'm not trying to silently trick the receiver, either.  I intend to explain to them up front that when they open the attached PDF, it will provide a signal that is the proof they have been notified.  It's also okay if this isn't easy; I have IT people that can do it.

  • How can I know "No of open connections"

    Dear experts,
    How can I know "No of open connection". i.e. No of open connection.
    Thanks

    I'm assuming you probably just want the number of user sessions that are currently open, which would be
    SELECT COUNT(*)
      FROM v$session
    WHERE type = 'USER'Justin

  • TS2756 How can i create a new usb connection (service)  on my iMac for sharing internet from my iPhone5 ( i seem have to deleted it )

    How can i create a new usb connection (service)  on my iMac for sharing internet from my iPhone5 ( i seem have to deleted it )
    i know its not a problem whit my carrier o data plan or sharing preferences on the ipone because when i use it un my laptop it works perfectly through
    the usb and even works on the Imac through wifi and bluethood tethering but NOT through usb!!.
    the problem is that trying to make it work i deleted the "profile" usb iphone on the network prefereces panel. Now i only have 3 options: ethernet / wifi / bluetooth
    but not the usb iPhone i used to have.
    And when i try to add a new one i dont get a USB option.
    can some one help me please??
    this is how it looks (after the bluetooth PAN i used to have USB iPhone option)

    The question would be more appropriate in the Mac forums as it is not really related to the iPhone.

  • How to connect a E1200 wireless router to a machine tool network for wireless communications

    Hello all, I am new to the forum, hope someone can help me out. I am wanting to connect my E1200 wireless router to a machine tool in our factory that has programmable controllers and is connected to the machine components via ethernet connections. This is so we can troubleshoot the machine without having a wired laptop. We have several ethernet switches on the machine and a range of IP addresses say from 192.16.1.1 through 192.16.1.150, and 192.16.17.1 through 192.16.17.150, all of the addresses are not used but random addresses in the range. I would like to be able to connect my E1200 to either one of the networks without having to make a change in the router setup. I can make it work on either network but when I switch my cable to the other network it has to be reconfigured. I am currently connecting my data cable to a ethernet port on the router and changing my router address from 192.168.1.1 to 192.16.1.1 and selecting a range of 150 so it will assign numbers as needed. This works great until I change to the other network and I have to change my router address to 192.16.17.1, I know this can be done on some routers because the technicians from the machine builder use them when working on the machines. thanks

    On the basic setup tab make the changes shown below:
    This basically make the router disappear off the existing networks and turns it into a wireless AP.
    Then when you set your laptop's wireless adapter to whatever IP network you want to connect to.
    If you need to connect to your router again change the laptop's adapter IP to something like 192.168.200.2
    Keep in mind nothing ever gets plugged into the Internet Port on the router.
    What I do with these manufacturing machine's is put them on the company network with static IP's. Then so operators can transfer programs and view drawings I place ELO touchscreens at each location. For the Laser cutter operators that do nesting they have a desktop workstation for the CAD software and put the nests on a network share or direct to the laser cutters.
    Please remember to Kudo those that help you.

  • How can I know about the latest updates / versions which when available for all the CC products, without having to install and check it with the Desktoip Creative Cloud Application ?

    How can I know about the latest updates / versions which when available for all the CC products, without having to install and check it with the Desktoip Creative Cloud Application ?

    Thanks for looking into this Jeff!
    I work with an Inventory module software and is responsible for software detection across several computers. Once an updated version comes up, I update our database with latest software details to get it detected if installed on any machines.
    The problem tracking updates with Desktop Creative Cloud Software are;
    1)We have to have it installed with the CC applications in-order to get the notification of the latest updates and have to check everyday.
    2)Only relates to the latest updates, so in-between we may miss a prior update unknowingly.Hence, the remote machines having those updates may not get  detected with the software version update which would create problem in reporting.
    3)For all CC products, there is no base or previous updates available for installation if we miss one.
    I went through the Adobe Products Update pages [Product updates] which holds good when it comes to Acrobat and Reader software which I follow to track down any newer updates but this is inconsistent when it comes to CC products like in After Effects CC, Dreamweaver CC etc...
    So overall to be very specific, is there any one channel I can follow to get the notifications only for the updates on CC products and then may be I can rely on Desktop Creative Cloud for installation if not available anywhere like in product update pages of Adobe ?

    Subrat

  • How do I know if my I pad is secure when using the Internet.

    How do I know if my I pad is secure when using the Internet?

    Pretty much the same way you'd know with any other device. Are you using cellular data? It's pretty secure. Are you using WiFi? If so, is it public, unsecured wifi? Or private WiFi with a password? If you're doing any type of sensitive transactions, are you checking to make sure that the website is secure by checking to see that the address begins with https not just http? Are you making sure you're typing in address for banks and financial institutions rather than clicking on links in email?

  • My HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 won't connect to my wireless router

    This is bizarre.  I have had my HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 for about 6 months.  It has generally worked fine, and we have used it wirelessly only.  But now it refuses to connect to the router.  It can FIND the router, and it can find other networks in the area, but it won't connect to the router.  I ran the Wireless Network Test, and the results say:
    Wireless On - Pass // Wireless Working - Pass //
    Network Name (SSID) found - Pass //  Wireless Networks Detected - 9
    Printer Settings Consistent with Wireless Router Settings - Pass / No Filtering - FAIL //
    So it recommends solution as follows: "1 If MAC Address filtering is enabled, and you would like to keep it enabled, you must add the Mac address of your printer to the list of permitted devices for your router before continuing."
    Except, guess what, I don't have MAC Address filtering enabled.  I wouldn't know how to do that, much less check for it.
    Also, before today, this was never a problem.  HELP!
    Thanks....
    If you are interested, here's more detail and background.  
    Before today, the only problem we have had is that frequently our Apple laptop (OS X 10.6) has trouble connecting to the printer.  This has been odd because the printer is connected to the network, and so is the laptop, but the laptop can't find the printer - it thinks the printer is "offline" (even though it's not).  Usually, if I wait a while, it will find the printer, and it will resolve itself work fine.  If not, we sometimes have found that it can fix itself if you restart the laptop -- restarting the printer does not make a difference.   In fact, I did exactly that today, and it resolved itself.  And I printed.  Fine, right?
    But then I wanted to do more printing, and the problem of the laptop not finding the printer came up again, so I decided to really "get to the bottom of this."  I don't remember exactly what I did, but somehow I was persuaded by the online help, that the correct solution would be to go into my System Preferences / Print and Fax, and click on the "-", which de-installs the printer, with the idea of re-installing the printer.  But then when I tried to re-install the printer, it could not find the printer.  Ugh!  Wierdly, it found an 8600 Scanner, but not an 8600 printers.  After installing and de-installing the 8600 scanner a few times, I eventually deinstalled everything, and I decided to start from scratch.  I got my HP disk, and installed all the software again from the beginning (even though it was already there), and then it looked for my printer, but couldn't find it.  So then I got a USB cord, and plugged that in.
    So, now I have a situation where I do have a working printer via the USB cord, but no wireless connection at all.  In particular, since the Office Jet Pro 8600 won't connect to the router, I don't know what else to do.  My Apple MacBook pro is 2 feet away from the printer, and it is connected to the router just fine (as is my blackberry), and I have never before had a problem connecting to the wireless router by the printer.
    Any suggestions?

    There are two things that can trip the mac filtering test to fail:  actual MAC address filtering setup (sounds like this is not the case) and using wireless channel 6 or automatic for wireless channel in the wireless network settings (in the router).  Since it does show failed for MAC filtering and you do not use this option, try changing the wireless channel in the router to 1 or 11.  Those two channels provide the best compatibility with printers due to less interference.  Almost everything defaults to auto or 6 for the channel and this causes a lot of interference.  This change should not affect anything at all.  To do this, you may need to contact the router manufacturer as the process differs from router to router.
    What brand and model is the router?
    Has anything in the network settings changed at all?
    What version is the Mac OS X?  There may be additional steps to take as it sounds like there are two separate issues involved and this could be revisited later.
