Hiding the SSID is not a serious security measure, but it hinders many intruders, those not determined enough. If used with other measures, it helps a bit.

Exactly. Hiding those things keeps out 5 nines (99.999%) of the wifi freeloaders. The rest you aren't going to keep out anyway, but unless you live near a serious hacker you simply don't need to worry about them. That said, WPA2 and a longish password seems good enough for me. - -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iEYEARECAAYFAlX9tUQACgkQv7M3G5+2DLJejwCeM0G3AJnf5wIZwRuZXxf9DS3Y QfQAnAtrzdSSc/Wz/7uz3GEMWD6/1TQH =LeTQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
