In addition to "Disabling Wireless Network ID" or "not broadcasting Network ID", setup WEP or WPA, password. Another thing you should do is set up MAC filter on your Wireless router. With that, only the machine with the correct MAC address can access your wireless network.

Disabling Wireless Network is not that useful, with the right software you can still see the ID even though it's invsible.

WEP 128 encryption is good but given time, it can still be decrypted with a computer running Linux.

WPA is recommended over WEP and less overhead so it won't slow down your connection.

Might be too much for you but given time, you will know better :-)

good luck.
