yes.

you need to log into the wireless router's configuration page - normally http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1 (read your router's manual for the address and password) and once in there, you should be looking for something like a "attached devices" / "connected clients" section - it differs VASTLY from router to router so i can't be more specific about where you'd find that section or what it'd be called.

anyhow, this area of the router configuration page lists all computers connected to your router and show you the both the computer's name and the computer's network card's MAC address.

anything in there that isn't one of your computers is someone who has been connected to your wireless router.

this is about all the information you can find out about the individual(s) i'm afraid - the computer name and MAC address.

don't forget to 'accept' this answer if it helped.

Yes and no. You can see what COMPUTERS are using your network. But you have to guess WHO that computer belongs to...

Connect to the setup for your wireless router
(You can do this by opening Internet Explorer and typing in the IP address of the router as if it was the name of a website)
Usually in the setup there will be a DCHP table which will list the names of the computers that have connected to your network (may only be any in the last week).

If there is a computer listed that is not one your computer's. you have someone hacking into your wireless network. Time to set up a WEP password or other security. Check the documentation (or website) for your router for specific instructions. It is different for every make and model.
