Thanks for your information so far. I have found out more!

Hi Lloyd,
Options may be limited if they don't want to spend much.
Lowest cost option:
The Speedstream has a USB port as well as an Ethernet port. The PC can run

For what its worth, is it practical for you to turn off your wireless
network when not using the internet? That's what I have been doing ever

Hi Jon,
I would say someone has cracked your password (or seen you type it). I
would suggest a few things you can do to 'try' to protect your Network.
Of course, turning it OFF when you are not going to be using it is
good advice.

It sounds as though your wireless network has been cracked, however
there are some other possibilities, depending on what equipment you
are actually running.
