Hi Cassidy,
Do you know what WiFi encryption (open, WEP, WPA or WPA2) you are using?
If not then please let me know what operating system you are using so that I can give you instructions on how to check.
yeah . im using wpa2..
and also im tottally confused with my isp..
i check my modem 192.168.1.1
could you explain to me why there are many pvc .. ?

Hi Cassidy,
The screenshot shows traffic on the Ethernet LAN, for someone to be using that they would need to be physically plugged into the router with a network cable.
What traffic does WLAN show?
As you are using WPA2 then nobody could access the WiFi unless they had been told the key, or had access to a connected computer so that they could recover the key from there.
The multiple PVCs are a normal part of a PPPoE connection.
yeah. i set it up to wpa 2 according google.. thats the best way,...
im preety sure that someone maybe hijacked my connection.. about a year ago i found a connector switch that link to my neighbored from my internet cable.
maybe im just a paranoia. but this is kinda make me confused about my connection.. day by day the connection slower..
is there a way or a sofware for protection or network monitor.
thank you very much for helping me..
i only have 1 pc that connect to my modem . other than that im using ipad or wifi..

You would need to take that up with your ISP and / or police.
day by day the connection slower..
There could be many possible reasons for that.
is there a way or a sofware for protection or network monitor.
If the connection is made to the internet cable then there is no software that could monitor or protect from that.
ic.. from the router set up.. is there any suspicious thing ?
or do i need to reset up my modem?
I don't see anything suspicious in the router config.
do i need to reset up my modem
It will do no harm, so you could try.

If you have concerns then the only solution would be to change the modem for a different model.
