    Set a strong password for your wireless connection. Use a phrase it is easier for you to remember and harder to crack particularly if you use proper punctuation. i.e. correct capitalisation and use of commas and full stops.

    Caught two of them in person when they were tapping my wifi code under the modem by the door, and one tried to defend himself saying one other neighbour alert them and later pleaded, but got to know they never stop using it, and as a new customer i think i should put a stop as i have no idea how it goes.
