<br>That is entirely relative. WEP keeps the honest ones honest. WPA is just slightly stronger. WPA2 is currently the toughest nut to crack. <br><br>Several of my neighbors and I just leave the networks open, not locked-down like the city jail. All of the routers are password-protected to prevent anyone from changing settings. The machines themselves are secure, and if someone REALLY wants to mess around, WPA2 can be broken in an hour or three anyway. <br>
<br>But please, don't follow my example. Everyone should always lock down their home networks with the strongest possible encryption -- otherwise, the terrorists win. <br> <br></div><div></div></div><br>AJM<br clear="all">
