One of the first and most obvious ways to ensure this is to have security-enabled key on your wireless router. Typically, home users can have a reasonably good security with the AES-TKIP type encryption. Another way to ensure maximum security is to limit the number of computers that can access your wireless router. You can also ensure that only those computers with a particular hardware number can connect to your wireless router. Both these options are available in the admin section of the router's configuraton utility and its a matter of a couple of clicks to enable these features. Finally, a good way to ensure security is to make your wireless router non-broadcastable. You can enable this option again in the admin section. Once this option is enabled, only you know by what name is your router broadcasting your network and you can manually create a profile to connect with this network. Neighbouring users will not be able to see your wireless router when they search for "Available Wireless Networks."
