Users Connected to my Linksys Route

I have a concern with my wireless router. When I first installed it to my DSL connection I didn't enable WEP, but later I realized that the reason my laptop couldn't connect was because someone else in my apartment complex was connecting to my router (at least I assumed this since I was only allowing 2 connections). So I enabled WEP and that stopped the problem (temporarily). I doubt that anyone could have guessed my WEP ID, but just in case they did, I want to check to see if another person is connected to my router. It is a Linksys wireless router and was wondering if anyone knows a way to check what users are connected to my router. I would greatly appreciate it.

Look on your Linksys router DHCP Table. If you see a computer name that is not yours, then you have an intruder. A way to stop this is turning on MAC address filtering (if available on the Linksys router).
