iPhone is best suited to AES rather than TKIP

I havent a fucking clue what any of that lot means. I could do with it being password protected as theres a few houses nearby that could pick it up.

can you change the encryption on the sky modem/router? I have heard WPA(2) causing issues and people had to revert to WEP.
Another option is to remove the security all together and use MAC filtering.

When using my iPhone at home on the wireless, the connection drops out all the time.
Not due to signal, it just disappears. Then when i try to reconnect through the settings menu, it just says 'unable to connect to SKY' keeps asking for a password even though its saved in the phone.

Is it likely to be a phone or router problem? Never happened with laptop thou
