He said he was looking for some wireless to use, and saw TheDude (the name of ours), and was wondering if it was ours. I should hav ejust said no, but I said yes. Then that's when he asked. He said he tried all the "tricks of the trade" to try to get into it, but he couldn't. That worries me a lot that he knows this stuff.

He tried to break into your wireless network and because he couldn't crack it he wants to rent it?

Personally I would just tell him to piss off if he told me that...

Don't get involved with this guy -- period. Basically it's cheating or stealing. Also the pain down the road for you could far outweight a monthly $20 (or so) benefit. You don't need a potential MIGRAINE of this nature....

CrazyN8, which home market wireless routers offer this kind of detailed logging?

I would think the most you would get would be incoming and outgoing port and IP address, and not a long history at that. That's not enough for most people to discern what users on the home network are doing online.

NETGEAR WGR614 or something and I hate it but it was dirt cheap. It shows the site visited, source IP address (assigned by router), time and date. Like this:

Also, unless you have it set this way for a reason you should make it so the router doesn't broadcast its SSID.
