There should be an interface to your hub that you can log into and once in
there you can display a list of connected users.
Cheers

Hi George,
I am currently paying for option 3 which is supposed to be up to 8 megabites.
Is there anyway of telling if someone is tapping into my connection? Anyone
know just how secure the BT home hub is?
Thanks
Dave
Hi Dave,
The only way I know to check out speed issues with any degree of certainty, is
to run some tests at decidedly nasty hours of the day or night, when there are
likely to be fewer users around.
I think some providers are pushing the "contention ratios"
just too far, and what may have been 50 to 1 when you got it installed may be
more like 75 or 100 to 1.
For example, I find that Saturday midnight to Sunday 8am, my download speeds
are close to 2MB, yet by mid-Sunday morning when all the kids get on line, it's
down below 1MB
George.

Hi all,
I have seen some posts concerning wireless protection on wi fi etc I currently
use a BT home hub with my main pc wired to it and my wife uses her works laptop
pc wirelessly. In the last few weeks, the internet download speed has
seriously reduced and I have had concerns about the security of my system.
Could someone be using my connection and causing the slow connection? My wife
had to load a security code onto a memory stick and transfer it onto her pc in
order to connect to the hub. Has anyone else noticed a general slowing down of
broadband connection speeds?
Thanks in advance.
Dave
