As was said, you need to put a password in so that others cannot access your router. You do that on the configuration page of the router.

As others have said, you need to use a password (called a shared key) to protect the wireless access. Shown below is a screen capture image of where you need to do this in the router's admin web pages (depending on the exact model of your router, this page may look slightly different, but you should be able to find this page and setup wireless security):




And of course, if you are using wireless access yourself, you will need to configure your wireless clients to use the same wireless security method and password (the shared key). If you aren't actually using wireless access yourself (if all of your connections are with Ethernet cables), then you can just disable the wireless radio as shown in the screen capture image below:

You can access the above screens by opening your browser and typing 192.168.1.1 into the address bar. It will ask you for user name and password. Leave the user name blank and the default password for a linksys router is admin. This will open the above sceens that NetFixer shows.

Set a password, others can not connect to your router.
