Secure your wireless router

I have moved about a fair bit while being a student, and wherever I live, I can usually pick up a handful of unsecured wireless networks. This is obviously a bad idea, as anyone nearby can then use your internet, for whatever nefarious purposes they wish. It is really, really easy to set the security on your router, so if you are unsure, or know that you haven’t done it, find the manual and do it now. Not tomorrow, now!
