2.0 out of 5 stars Hacking - as it says on the tin, 29 Aug 2009

By	Roberto "Roberto" (UK) - See all my reviews

I had assumed that there would be more basic information about wireless networks.

I want to make my network safe but I have no wish to hack into other networks.
Consequently this was a disappointment as it describes what it says on the front cover with not much introduction!
