I should know the answer, but I don't.
Here's the situation. Comcast signal to wireless Motorola modem, wired to Vonage modem, and then to wireless Motorola router.
My computers are connected either wired or wireless to the router, which is WPA2 protected.
The wireless signal from the Motorola Modem, is not encrypted. I don't care if my neighbors use the signal since they only use it for occasional emails.
I have changed the Admin password on the router. I realize that a hacker with a spin program might be able to get through to my router, but other than that... (not likely to happen in a gated community) am I at risk?
