How do I go about setting a code for my WiFi signal being sent out?

You need to take a look at the manual for your router or access point.

From the instructions, you can get to the router settings web page. From there, you enable security and set your code.

I also recommend giving your access point a name other than the make and model of the device.

I recommend making it only allow specific devices to the router and not to broadcast the ssid as this will help increase security.

Also, it is a good idea to update the firmware for your router as well. This may add more current encryption technologies and security settings.
