You would have to go into the GUI interface of your wireless router (Usually you put the IP address in the browser bar and hit enter). Once you put in the Admin password, in the configuration you can set up the security of the wireless. The most common is WEP, so set a password and it will either let you use that or it will generate a long string for you to print out or write down to join others to the wireless network.
Hope this helps!

The best thing you can do is MAC Address Filtering. Then, you can set the Wireless Card addresses that you would allow to use your network. Adding WPA TKIP and a password and be relatively safe.

Activate the WEP/WPA or whatever you have on your Router; that should stop the Access. Set it to 128 Bit Encryption
