Setting up a Password for Netgear Wireless Router

[Daahan]

I recently moved in to my own apartment and had my internet hooked up and i use a Netgear wireless router.

I don't want my neighbors to steal my interwebs so how do I set up a password for it?

Thanks,

Log onto the router.... usually by typing 192.168.1.1 into your web browser. Enter the default username and password (usually admin/admin or something similar, google if you dont know) and then browse the settings. There should be a setting for wireless security. Enable WEP or WPA, set a password key, and you're all set.
