Your router's administrative console can help you find out more about your wireless network activity and change your security settings. To log into the console, go to your router's IP address. You can find this address on Windows by going to a command prompt (press Win+R then type cmd) and then typing ipconfig in the window, then find the "Default Gateway" IP address. On a Mac? Open the Network Preference pane and grab the IP address listed next to "Router:".Next, type in that IP address in a browser window. You'll be prompted to login to your router.All routers are different, but once you're in yours, you'll want to look for a section related to connected devices. This could be called "Attached Devices" (Netgear) or "My Network" (Verizon routers), "Device List" on the awesome Tomato firmware, or something similar. It should provide a list of IP addresses, MAC addresses, and device names (if detectable) that you can check against. You can compare the connected devices to the ones you have and detect if any unauthorized device is connected.
