Your router is running 24/7, connected to every device you own, exposed to the entire internet. And the admin password is probably still "admin."

One network was compromised not by some elite hacker but by a neighbor who guessed the Wi-Fi password (it was the street address). The printer — the PRINTER — was the entry point.

The home network is where most people's security story begins and ends. This manual gives you the whole picture: what's in the box, how it all connects, why your signal sucks in the bathroom, and how to not be the easiest target on the block.

6 chapters. One restart probably required.
