If a professional decides to hack you then they can crak WEP, WPA, WPA2.
But we would they bother on a residential estate? Script kiddies can
probabaly crack WEP but easier to go after no security.
So what is the answer? Well to make it as hard as possible by using
WPA2 with short timeouts

They sit in cars, they hack wifi networks and download illegal stuff
like child pornography.
And it's downloaded from your internet connection, so
Yeah, but why would they bother targeting someone with WPA or WPA2 when
there are still plenty of people using WEP or no security at all? My goal
in using WPA2 is to make it as inconvenient as possible. Given that right
now I can see two of my neighbors unsecured networks, and given that some

Maybe because people that know what they are doing, setting wpa2 for

Dunno.

Well yes, password size matters, but I was referring to AES's more
advanced encryption than TKIP.
Since TKIP hasn't been broken yet, AES is overkill - but still, it
costs nothing in terms of time and money to implement, so I did it.

It's more a matter of password size IIRC. (size matters)
Password size and complexity I would guess. Try to use nouns and use
uppercase, lowercase, numbers and non-alphanumeric characters like
commas, dashes, etc.

Obviously. A long string of 's wouldn't be very secure. Entropy is
what you're after.

thanks , I was a bit confused as the SB's setup only offers WEP, then I
saw in another post that you need to setup the router's security first,
which then changes the SB's option, thanks again

Same here. And you are correct, WEP is functionally useless against
any kind of mildly interested attacker.
