This certainly is a problem if you don't set up
a secure network. My collegue frequently uses his

Setting up a wep key is so simple, people should
know better than leavin unsecured networks. What
I'm concerned with however is weather nor not a
64bit key is sufficient to keep out local air
snorters.
its been what 2 years now since wep has been
declared *unsecure* if someone is listening to enough
traffic they can work out your key.
