Default network administrator can monitor internet traffic?

I'm living in a house with 3 other college girls. We share a wireless router. Can the network administrator (my room mate) monitor what I do online?

Can she.... Yes
Will she? don't know
Why are you so paranoid? Planning on breaking the law? Prefer to surf for illicit material without them knowing?

Don't answer that.

Think of this, Everything you do at school, or work is monitored. ISP's are required to monitor for certain activity. It's not a totally free web, never has been, really. It's been close, but not totally.

I guess I'll get my walker and hobble off, but still, unless I were doing something wrong, I wouldn't worry. If I were worried, I'd need to let my conscience be my guide, and quit.

Through just a wireless router? NO, come one... if she had some software on her computer, then yes. I don't think you can pull that info up on say a Linksys or Netgear wireless router.
