Just found out that my wifi was being used by my neighbor without my permission.He is in 12 th standard ,he failed the exams and is appearing exams due next year.

This explains my low internet speed at certain times as I couldn't watch 360p youtube video(its a 86KBPS connection)
His house is just opposite of mine.I kept noticing him with his mobile near his window.I just turned off my router and he is gone.Turned it on,he is back.Did this a couple of times,now enjoying it.hehe
As always my password is 12345678 and I can't change it because I my pc has a fried motherboard and I have no plans repairing it :(
What are some things similar to this experienced by you?

Use your phone's browser to access the router's settings on wifi. Change the password or better block his MAC address :twisted:

Umm Just change your wifi password from your phone's browser. you know, the usual 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.0
Go to the Wireless section in the left side.. Change password.

Instead of the password, you should have changed the Wi-Fi name to something like "NoFreeInternetHereKeepLooking"!!!:p:p:p
