Is someone using my internet?

[Kenny]

just because you see another name there does not mean someone is using your internet, more than likely it is just another signal from someone else who has a wireless connection. It is showing up because they are within your range, which is usually about 500 FT or less. Where I live I show a connection named "Michael" with a medium signal range which means this person lives about 250 - 300 feet from me, another named HARO56 is another user, very poor signal which means this person is probably about 450 - 500 FT from me. If you have a password set up this should be nothing to worry about. Incidentally, when you click on this name what happens? does it ask you to connect? does it ask you for a network security key? If so then you are safe. Just as an extra precaution, if it makes you feel better you can always change your password as well. that is up to you.
