Having been using my router for a few months now just for its hardware
firewall and ethernet connection I was appalled to just find that three
other computer had decided to join my network!

I can understand that people want to use these items straight out of the box
and for their connection to be automatically detected but surely it is not
too much to expect a little bit of security rather than the "hey come and
connect to me" signal that is broadcast
