主权项

1. A wireless access point device comprising:
one or more hardware processors; and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium, the computer readable storage medium having program code embodied therewith, the program code executable by the one or more hardware processors to perform steps comprising: receiving a first set of invalid passwords from at least one wireless device, the at least one wireless device attempting authentication with the wireless access point device with passwords, the first set of invalid passwords received with a RF signal at a first power level, the first power level producing a first RF signal range, the RF signal adjusts power level range around the wireless access point device that a wireless device is able to communicate with the wireless access point device using a wireless connection; and reducing power of the RF signal to a second power level in response to receiving the first set of invalid passwords, the second power level producing a second RF signal range, the second RF signal range smaller than the first range.
