A few additional points to your 3 points:

1. When choosing a passphrase – longer is better. The best is a long, and complex passphrase.

2. While disabling the broadcasting can stop people who aren’t hackers from seeing your network, chances are WPA2 alone is enough to prevent them from accessing your network. For hackers, disabling broadcasting does absolutely nothing as the software hackers use can detect networks that don’t broadcast.

The first two points are crucial to securing your network, and peforming those steps, along with a long passphrase, can keep your network protected without worries.

@Lito – Yeah, most users think that the WPA2 encryption is enough but it isn’t. You’re welcome! Glad I could share some useful information and tips to you guys.

I thought just enabling the encryption to WPA2 is secure enough and never thought of changing the SSID and turning off broadcasting is also necessary. Thanks for this info, it's very useful. .-= Lito|TheFilipinoEntrepreneur.Com´s last blog ..How to Improve Advertisement Efficiency on Your Blog or Website =-.
