What Are The Disadvantages To Not Setting Up Security On My Wireless Router?

I know that i’ve always appreciated being able to pick up a free signal when i’m in different places with my wireless laptop so i don’t really see the need to put a security key on my paid connection. but i’d like to know the risks. can hackers view my online activity somehow? can they change my routers settings? if others use it will it slow my connection?

  as long as you are not sending any secure information you can have it free, but if you plan to logonto your bank or credit card sites or buy stuff online then i suggest to have a secure wireless router as well a firewall. else its your luck.
