From the Foundation of Wireless LAN Router to the second re-recognition of active use

Security settings on the router

 When ensuring the security (security) of a router, there are roughly three kinds of things that users can do. One is the appropriate setting of the management screen or WLAN encryption key. The other is the active use of MAC address filters and packet filters. The remaining one is the separation of wireless LAN with low level of security.

 In addition, there are negative methods such as turning off the wireless LAN and transferring to the 5 GHz band with fewer users during the time period that is not used in the power saving setting, but the main premise is the three states described earlier.

 Hackers have a variety of attack methods, and new methods emerge one after another, so considering the memory and processing power, we should focus on the processing of PC, but because the old types of attacks will not disappear, the router side should also do what can be done.

 In addition, you won't forget the firmware update. Because it is a product that is often used for a long time, serious problems may be found during this period. If it is a product with automatic updates, it can be completely dependent on this, so it is easy to manage. However, since it has been handed over completely, I hope that accidentally cutting off the power supply during automatic update will not cause me any trouble.
