Security through obsecurity is not the way forward. [/quote] Yes, however for most home users, unless they have a powerful wireless device or in a very built up area, this isn't particularly something to worry about. It is far easier to go for someone with WEP encryption with a broadcasted SSID than someone with WPA, Hidden SSID and MAC Filtering. Most security systems can be broken, however there is a point where you are doing what you need to do as a home user. [/quote] Directional antennas and powerful wireless adapters like the ones I had in my possesion for a while, I dont need to be near your gaff to play around with it. Yes its easier to go for the ones with WEP but the ones with more security might be hidng something more worthwhile getting to ;) Home user security is as important as business security in this day and age of Internet banking and so forth. Think of the people who get their paypal SMASHED and end up with 0 in their bank account and savings cause they clicked on some images Nismo posted up. :lol: [/quote]
