Usually it is under status page (dhcp clients button or local network) in your router. ( WRT54G version )
If you think you are having issues with someone surfing your wireless ....
Then lock it down by restricting access by MAC address
Most Linkys routers have a view current wireless clients setting, will check your current network for wireless clients. This will display their MAC addresses. with one fatal swoop, you can add or remove MAC access via that page ( WRT54G mac page)
As a rule before you even get into security settings for WEP/WAP/ etc you should always lock it down by mac, then add encryption, then disable SSID broadcast
