If someone hops on to your wi-fi, then there is more at stake than just checking e-mails or streaming videos. This person can intercept all the data flowing in and out of your network.

A strong password consists of at least eight (8) characters (and the more characters, the stronger the password) that are a combination of letters, numbers and symbols (@, #, $, %, etc.). Passwords are typically case-sensitive, so a strong password contains letters in both uppercase and lowercase.
