Journal jaydanie's Journal: wifi security?

I decided to check on the wifi router setup in the shop. I mistakenly typed in the wrong ip 192.168.1.1 and got another wifi router login from a linksys unit! Wait a minute, I'm not using a linksys router... Re-checking my connect to "FORDSHOP" to make sure I was connected to the proper network I typed in the correct ip 192.168.2.1 and accessed the myessential's router. Question: Is this a security problem with wifi? How was I able to connect to the wrong router login on a different network even though I was connected to the correct router? It would seem that if this is the case, wifi has a major security flaw!
