What is the safest commonly supported Wireless Security?

GrYnder . asked:


I currently use WEP. I was wondering if other options are more secure. I need one that XP and Vista both support. My router supports WEP, WPA, and WPA2

Thanks.
Thank you all for your input. I will be switching security modes shortly. :)

      you don’t want to use WEP, it can be hacked in minutes. There is already a widely known WEP hacker program.

      You should use WPA2 it can not be so easily hacked.

      There is also mac filtering to only let certain computers use it and SSID to hide its wireless connection.

      WEP has been cracked and is very easy to hack into.
      WPA and WPA2 is infinitely better and has not yet been cracked.

      It can take as little as 90 seconds to hack into a WEP connection using free software from the web.

      Go all the way up to WPA2. It’s the hardest to crack.

      WPA is better supported than wpa2, but wpa has been cracked.

      Don’t use WEP.
      Set for WPA or WPA2 if your computers support this level.
      Also; Disable UPnP & QoS,
      Enable: Router management username & bulletproof passphrase,
      & AES
