[QUOTE="New2TheMac, post: 1008197, member: 139905"] Would having Apple Airport disabled be enough in regards to wireless security? I did debate over whether to use wireless or ethernet, but decided to go with ethernet. I'll fully admit to being ignorant about internet connections, but by any chance my neighbors wouldn't be able to intercept or leach off of my connection, would they? I remember when setting up my Macbook I saw a list of internet connections, presumably my neighbors. I was just wondering if I could see theirs could they see mine and potentially connect to it and/or look at the data my computer sends out such as passwords. [/QUOTE]
