Is it possible that my Wifi to get hacked?

I live in front of a known hacker. I have a wi - fi connection. Can get in my computer? My provider says NO, but I wonder. I wouldn't even want to? I have windows 7 home premium on one and 8.1 on the other. I use them separately. But I use the same device at the same time.

You should take a look at your router's security features. There should be a specific encryption of Wi - Fi [as WPA - PSK (TKIP) or WPA2 - PSK (AES)] and/or a wireless key. They are available but not active, you must activate the. You must also follow generic advice to protect your computers and other devices as well (firewall, antivirus and so on).

Note that a router or modem is likely to be configurable remotely through a web browser.

If possible, you must turn off wireless capability when your not using it. It is not practical to use a Web page to remotely control a router to turn it every time, but if there is a physical switch that you return with your finger, plan to use it. You can also disable the feature of Wi - Fi of the individual device from time to time.

P.S. I don't personally believe these rumours.
