wifi concept, that i would like to understand

The last I heard, routers with WPS could be cracked with a Linux-based attack but this doesn't seem to be what you are asking.

Simply leaving the WiFi module on your system turned on will not make a difference to its security, if it is not connected to a network.

EDIT: I suppose, if you use an app such as Connectify which makes a virtual router using your laptop's wifi card, I'd imagine that it *could* be accessed by another system - although this is an exceptional circumstance. With this said, the range would also be pretty miniscule and you could probably see and wave to the person who has nefarious shenanigans in mind.

Let's block ads! (Why?)
