ramjdmcmm Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 all the tenants are given a password to access the internet via the landlords router. We are all on the same network. The landlord controls the router and all passwords associated with it. Right now I am hardwired into the router. How do I stop any intrusion via this network. If I can't stop it how do I convince them to stop it. gotta make them stop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxtrot Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 If I can't stop it how do I convince them to stop it. Just ask the landlord to tell his kid to stop pissing around :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digip Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 VPN Quoted for emphasis. VPN or SSH tunnel all your traffic. Also, stop using landlords wifi, get your own internet, no more issues, and don't use wifi if you do get your own home setup. Not sure where you live, but lots of ISP's can now offer modems for more than one house dwelling, so if renting a room in a duplex or something, you can get your own modem and internet account off the same address under your own name. Look into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no42 Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Buy your own 4G/3G dongle or tether your phone (data plan permitting) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hexophrenic Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 First, even before a VPN, turn on your firewall. If windows, make sure your wifi connection is set to public. If linux, we should not even have to tell you this. Once your machine itself is protected, then set up a VPN or SSH tunnel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
