Let me guess what your wireless security settings are...
I've just bought the cheapest wireless router I could find to share my hotel broadband connection with my room-mates.
Note: The Internet access is covered in the room rate and we are allowed to share it.
Against my better judgment I ran the software that came with the router to configure it. What a nightmare. Having followed the dumb wizard I had a router with an administrator account named "admin" and no password!
ANYONE (within range) could administer my router by browsing to https://192.168.0.1 using the credentials I mentioned earlier.
Make sure your router is not set this way!
