Re: Seeking information about wireless network

On the security side, what are WEP and WPA?  Security protocols I
presume?


Encryption protocols ... WEP is older, and has been cracked.  It's
better than nothing, but if someone really wants to get into your
wireless network, they can.

WPA is better ... although I don't think it's uncrackable.


Any good links to how to secure wireless networks, or is that included
with the wireless router?


http://www.broadbandreports.com is always a good resource.
