you’re right i’m really retarded. thank you for telling me

all i was saying… is a simple secure connection is fine… if you see others using it… then its time to step it up… but if there is no one else using the connection since you have a WEP key… why make it more difficult on yourself

Remembering a 128bit hex key for WEP is easier than remembering a passphrase for WPA? Anyways, there both just as easy to setup, why wouldn’t you setup something more secure?
