| 1165185 | 2010-12-28 04:19:00 | I have a Telecom Thomson TG585v8 wireless modem. Been getting concerned that others can access us. I have changed access key and added additional numbers/letters. Changed to 64 bit encryption and am using WEP encryption. Any ideas and how do I know if I am being hacked? Thanks, Ian:banana |

It has known flaws which are easily exploitable. Use WPA2. Telecom set it up, for me, over the phone and said to use that. My lappy is over 5 years old, so me be why they said that...:stare: |

| 1165188 | 2010-12-28 06:05:00 | Maybe. Do you know what wireless card you have? | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 1165189 | 2010-12-28 07:16:00 | If you can, use at least WPA. WEP is pointless. Some older wireless stuff may not support WPA2, but should be OK with WPA - even my 7 year old iPaq supports it. | inphinity (7274) | ||

| 1165191 | 2010-12-28 20:59:00 | Maybe. Do you know what wireless card you have? No I don't sorry. But I have tried to change to other protocols but nothing else works. At the moment I'm in too much pain, to think straight:waughh::confused::yuck::groan:, so will come back here later. Sorry guys...:horrifie |

I believe the interface is similar to the ST536v6, load up the web interface and then go to Home Network > Devices That should give a list of everything connected, what its hostname is, what IP it's using and what interface (ethernet or wifi) it's connected on. No I don't sorry. But I have tried to change to other protocols but nothing else works.
