If you can ping the Gateway and your protocols are configured correctly, you should be able to ping the ISPs network. If you cannot PING the ISPs network, make sure you are using the correct protocols with the correct VPI VCI values.

  • Page 118: Appendix B Wireless Security

    Appendices Appendix B Wireless Security A Brief Overview Whenever data - in the form of files, emails, or messages - is transmitted over your wireless network, it is open to attacks. Wireless networking is inherently risky because it broadcasts information on radio waves. Just like signals from your cellular or cordless phone can be intercepted, signals from your wireless network can also be compromised.
  • Page 119 Appendices Even keeping your network settings, such as the SSID and the channel, secret won’t prevent a hacker from listening for those beacon messages and stealing that infor- mation. This is why most experts in wireless networking strongly recommend the use of WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy).
  • Page 120 Appendices Active Attacks Hackers use Active Attacks for three purposes: 1) stealing data, 2) using your net- work, and 3) modifying your network so it’s easier to hack in the next time. In an Active Attack, the hacker has gained access to all of your network settings (SSID, WEP keys, etc.) and is in your network.

    Appendices B.1 Maximizing Wireless Security Security experts will all tell you the same thing: Nothing is guaranteed. No technology is secure by itself. An unfortunate axiom is that building the better mousetrap can often create a better mouse. This is why, in the examples below, your implementation and administration of network security measures is the key to maximizing wireless security.
  • Page 122 Appendices 3) Network Devices With every wireless networking device you use, keep in mind that network settings (SSID, WEP keys, etc.) are stored in its firmware. If they get into the hands of a hacker, so do all of your settings. So keep an eye on them. 4) Administrator passwords Your network administrator is the only person who can change network set- tings.
  • Page 123 Appendices 7) Firewalls Once a hacker has broken into your wireless network, if it is connected to your wired network, they’ll have access to that, too. This means that the hacker has effectively used your wireless network as a backdoor through your firewall, which you’ve put in place to protect your network from just this kind of attack via the Internet.
  • Page 124 Appendices Current encryption technology offers 64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption. If you are using 64-bit WEP , swap out your old wireless units for 128-bit encryption right away. Where encryption is concerned, the bigger and more complex, the better. A WEP key is a string of hexadecimal characters that your wireless network uses in two ways.
