I think that also. And it always lead to problem when friends bring a laptop or other equipment and ask for a connection.
Regarding securing a router. Nowadays you usually just point your browser to the router (see the manual) and configure it there. It is usually not very hard. Usually you have to connect a computer with a cable to be able to configure the router. You cannot do it using the WiFi.
