It does not matter if you are connected through wireless or cable, your router can provide firewall protection for all of its ports on the LAN side. If your question is: Is my wireless router's firewall protecting me, although I do use it for wireless connectivity, the answer is yes. Your routers firewall protects you whether you use the wireless option or not.

What happens if you choose a padlocked wifi spot on Pokemon soul silver gts and please could you explaine how to get conected to that wireless spot thanks?

The "padlocked" wireless spots are secured networks that local residents/businesses have. You cannot access them without the password that those residents/businesses set up for their system. You have to log into your own wireless network via a router or go to a Nintendo wifi hotspot. You can find out where the hotspots are near you at nintendowifi.com


Hi Jeanne, we won't ?

Hi Jeanne, we won't be able to tell you what the wifi password is - to get that information, you'll need to ask whoever set up the wireless network. If it was your cable company, then there should be a sheet with your information on it that they gave you. If you're locked out of your own network and can't get back in for some reason, you can hard-reset the router by holding the 'reset' button on the back for 30 seconds straight. This will reset the router to an open network configuration - you will need to log back in and setup your wireless access credentials if you wish to make the network private again. Thanks!
