Setting a Password?

Hello there,

I just bought and set up a Linksys Wireless-G router (No WKPC54G) to share my broadband cable modem between my Windows XP machine and my MacBook running OSX 10.4

When I completed the setup process, I input a password which seems to be only used to gain access to the setup website.

Question is, how do I set up a password to access the wireless network? When I switched my Macbook on, it saw the WiFi network straight away and logged on without me needing to type in a password at all. I guess this means that any Tom, *** or Harry could do the same! Other local WiFi networks always seem to ask for a password, so how can I make mine do the same?

cheers

Steve
