Network Access Flaw?

Question

Hey,

Theres a flaw in my wireless network. I have found out anyone can connect to it without using a password.

I found this out by using a PSP and got on the network in less then 30 seconds. Bad times.

2 networks come up, one without a name but it requirers a password.
Another called 'default' and anyone can connect to that.
It may not be my network actually, but is there anyway to find out?

Thanks,
- Mike

Answer 1

There's a way to test, but you'll need two computers. Have one log on to your network and another log on to "default". Check the IP address of each computer (type "ipconfig" from a command prompt). First see if the subnets match (the first three sets of numbers are the same, such as 192.168.1.xxx) If they don't, you're not on the same network.
If they do, type "ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" from a command prompt on one computer (where the x's represent the IP address of the OTHER computer). If you can't ping the other computer, you're not on the same network.

Answer 2

You don't give us enough information.

How is the PSP Connecting?
What equipment do you have?
What system do you use?
etc.
