which meant that the attempting hack actually HAS the security password even though I'm running WPA2. It occurred to me that the router logs actually differentiated between incorrect security and denial of access. The router logs then showed my X-Box being "rejected" due to incorrect security (since it had not been changed to the new pw). I ended up changing my WiFi password just to beef up security a little. I thought I was done, but have been annoyed that the connection attempts continue even after months of blocked access. The logs now constantly (every 4-15 minutes with long breaks occasionally) show the MAC being "denied access" to the router. I originally thought maybe one of my neighbors was sniffing/hacking, so I set up MAC filtering for the WiFi. My Netgear router logs have been showing an unknown mac address connecting ever since I set it up a few months ago (when we moved in to a new home). This is my first real shout out for help, and any that you guys can give will really be appreciated.
