I just received my d-link gaming router and was wondering what are the best ways to secure a wireless network? Please help and thank-you for your time.

You can enable WEP or WPA and/or mac address filtering. You can also not broadcast your SSID as well so it won't show up on the wireless network list thing.

wpa or wpa2 should be fine. anyone with the right tools can crack or get around anything else. make sure you pick a strong password though. bonus points if it's a 63 character random.
