how do you set your network to secure or private so no one else can use it?

There are lots of methods to secure your network.  Change the default username, password and IP address of your router...create a strong encryption key so outsiders only see gibberish...enable MAC Address Filtering...set your router to not broadcast your network name...turn off remote access features...create a personal login(s) on your computer...rename the Guest and Administrator accounts.

The manufacturer of your router would have tips and instructions on their website.

You would want to setup a password or more specifically a WPA key to but the normal level of security for the router. We can give more specific steps but do you know the brand of router?
