[QUOTE="hollerz1, post: 36955"] Hi, My PowerBook connects to the internet by the Airport Extreme Base Station, and sometimes when I'm not doing anything that needs the internet, the 3 lights on the base station flash continuesly, so i checked Activity Monitor, and there is about 20KB/s data in/sec, and 20KB/s data out/sec. I thought it could be someone i dont know connecting to the base station with wireless network card, so I connected the router directly to my PowerBook, and the data stopped coming in and going out. Is this normal when using the AEBS, or is someone using my internet?! The base station has a password on it, and the network has WPA Personal security on it, so I thought that would stop anyone using it. Any ideas? [/QUOTE]
