It's freaky

Just downright freaky how many wide open WiFi routers there are out there.

I know, in my area there are two open WiFi routers out of four that I can detect, that's a fifty percent rate.

The sad thing is that it's so easy to lock down your WiFi cloud, my router had instructions on how to lock it down using WPA2-TKIP encryption and I am sure many WiFi routers have instructions on how to lock down the router with basic encryption measures. But I went a step further and went with WPA2-AES to take advantage of better security and connection speed (my router is 802.11n). It wasn't that hard to figure it out.
