I have a network that is comprised of both a router that connects
four hardwired PC's and a wireless access point that connects to the
router and services several laptops, a Sony PSP and a pocket PC via a
wireless connection.
The system works and has no problems. The various computers can all
access the Internet and share files with the other computers.
But Zone Alarm logs a significant number of attempts by the wireless
access point 192.168.1.245 to access my personal PC (it is hardwired
to the router. Zone Alarm blocks these attempted connections.
My guess is that the WAP is either doing a port scan or it is trying
to send a log file to my PC.
My question is: Is it safe to put the address for the wireless access
point in the "Trusted Zone" as I have done with the other computers in
my network or could that compromise the security on my network?
