Just think once, you pay a heavy bill every month for a better internet connection and someone to whom you don't know at all takes the advantage of it..Well I don't think you are going to let it happen and not only you ,no one likes that someone stealing his/her network and enjoying his/her piece of cake.
So in this post i am going to show you how you can know if someone is connected to your Local Area Connection and prevent them from using your internet connection.
Command Prompt can let you know if someone is connected to your Local Area Connection and using it. Just follow the steps:-
1) Open your browser and visit http://192.168.1.1 or http://192.168.0.1 depending on your router.
2) Find the tab that mentions “Attached Devices” or something similar.
3) Find the computer name, IP address and MAC Address (sometimes called Physical Address or Hardware Address) of your computer using the previous trick.
4 )Compare it with those displayed by your router in Step 2. If you notice some strange devices, then your neighbour has been sneaking in on your internet connection and it is best to set a password.
