I just looked at that and all I can say is,
You better protect the connection with WPA or WPA2 or you could have serious personal issues by getting compromised.

And anyone that discovered your wireless access point could use your connection for criminal activity and it would look like you did it because it was on your IP number.
When I was a Newby, I was like a fresh new Sponge from the Grocery Store looking for anyone to spill something good so I could jump on it and SOAK-IT-UP !
I'm still looking for a few good spills here and there.

Our fathers' God to Thee, Author of Liberty, To Thee we sing.
Long may our land be bright, With Freedom's Holy light, Protect us by Thy might,
Great God our King.
Rome did not create a GREAT EMPIRE by having Meetings; They did it by KILLING All those who OPPOSED them.
Eschew Obfuscation !
