Hi all,
I recently moved house and set up my wireless router again. It hadnt been used in a few months. Anyways when I set up the router I found i'd lost the manufacturer instructions. I bought the router about a year ago on a Chinese website and its an OEM device. I cant find any manufacturer details on the router. (http://www.chinavasion.com/product_info.php/pName/80211n-wireless-router-300mbps-3-antennas-edition/).
The router has been left open for the last few weeks but i've noticed that the speed has decreased a lot and I think some of my neighbours might be using it. Any tips on how to secure the router without the instructions?

See if it provides a web configuration service: find your DefaultGateway IP, using "ipconfig /all" and put that address (probably 192.168.x.x) into the address bar on your browser.
